Update: Florida Governor Signs AOB Reform Bill
May 28, 2019
In recent years, lawmakers deliberated changes to the AOB process but could not reach an agreement, amidst heavy lobbying by groups on both sides of the issue. This year, however, the House and Senate came to an agreement and sent the bill to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. DeSantis signed House Bill 7065 on Thursday, marking the end to a seven-year battle by the industry and reform advocates. This law takes effect on July 1, 2019.
