The measure gaining the most attention is SB 408, this year's omnibus property insurance reform bill that addresses many of the same issues contained in last year's SB 2044—a bill vetoed by former Gov. Charlie Crist despite widespread support among lawmakers, regulators, trade groups and consumer advocates.
