E30: All About Insurance

Point of Order with Assemblyman Josh Hoover

Assemblyman Josh Hoover is joined by Seren Taylor, Vice President of the Personal Insurance Federation of California (PIFC), to discuss the current state of the insurance market in California and what we can expect to see in the Legislature this year. Other topics discussed include a new bill that would give employees a right to disconnect during non-work hours, CalChamber’s recently released Job Killer list, CPUC’s long-awaited fixed rate proposal, the bizarre result in a Bay Area election, and the proposed early action budget deal.

Host: Assemblyman Josh Hoover

Cohost: Seren Taylor, Vice President, PIFC

Question of the Week: Should the Legislature give California employees a right to disconnect from work-related conversations during non-work hours or is this a boundary best handled between the employer and employee?
