Rebuild:LA Episode 076: State Farm Fined “A Drop in the Bucket” for Illegal Actions in the Palisades and Eaton Fire Recovery with Joy Chen from Every Fire Survivors’ Network

Send us Fan Mail$2 million dollars. That’s what the California Board of Insurance (CBI) fined State Farm after spending 11 months looking into its illegal practices after the Eaton and Palisades Fires. They only had to investigate a fraction of the complaints against the insurance giant to see a clear practice of illegal delay and denial of claims made by fire survivors. And while $2 million dollars might seem like a lot to someone trying to recover from a wildfire, it’s what State Farm makes EVERY HOUR from its massive investment portfolio. On this week’s show, Joy Chen, the founder of the Every Fire Survivors’ Network, and a champion for insurance reform in our state, joins host Cameron Barrett and lays out the work she and her fellow advocates have done in the last year.Resources:Every Fire Survivors’ NetworkRally for RecoverySupport EFSN's Insurance Reform BillsSupport the show
