WASHINGTON—The Heartland Institute and its insurance-centric Washington unit are negotiating a divorce, a process said to be accelerated by distress over the institute's now-suspended ad campaign linking support for global warming with serial killers.
Several members of the Washington-based Heartland Center for Finance, Insurance and Real Estate confirmed today that lawyers for the two sides are negotiating a split, and that it is imminent.
The Heartland Institute is based in Chicago; the Washington unit is highly regarded by the insurance industry and serves both as a resource and database on catastrophe issues.
