WASHINGTON, DC — Representative Warren Davidson (R-OH) today, along with 9 House Republicans, sent a letter to the Federal Insurance Office (FIO) calling out and investigating the FIO’s circumvention of state regulators by pushing insurance agencies to hand over climate-related data. 
 
“Climate alarmists and activists are abusing the Federal Insurance Office by overstepping state regulators to collect climate data,” said Rep. Warren Davidson. “The FIO’s lack of good faith to coordinate with state insurance regulators sets a dangerous precedent that could ultimately undermine Congress’s intent under the Dodd-Frank consumer protection law.” 
 
As established by Congress under Title V of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the FIO is required to coordinate with state insurance regulators before collecting data and information directly from insurance agencies.
 
Rep. Davidson serves as chair of the House Subcommittee on Housing, Community Development, and Insurance. Read the full letter sent to the FIO here.
