2022 promises to be a seminal year for consumer protection.
 
We can only make the landmark changes on our list with your generous support.

Consumer Watchdog’s ambitious list for the new year includes:
 

• Finally adjusting the 1975 cap on injured patients’ compensation for quality of life and wrongful death damages by passing the Fairness For Injured Patients Act on the November California ballot.

• Ushering in strong new rules from the California Privacy Commission that prevent car manufacturers and insurance companies from collecting data about your precise geo-location against your will. 

• Enacting a bottle deposit law reform that places the responsibility for recycling on the beverage industry and has a 90% redemption rate.

• Forcing Governor Newsom to stop the issuing of any new oil drilling permits.

• Provoking new rules from the California Insurance Commissioner that curb the use of education and occupation in auto insurance rates and that give homeowners discounts when they fire-proof their homes. 

• Continuing to roll back insurance rates and hold insurance companies accountable for unreasonable rate hikes. 

• Prosecuting landmark cases to protect Californians’ health care privacy, environment, and against the use of Big Data to unfairly raise insurance prices.
