Jane Kim

Democratic

Running for: Insurance Commissioner · California

Attorney/Consumer Advocate

In their own words

The Insurance Commissioner should be working for you to lower prices, not working for the industry to increase profits. That's why I will never take a dime from insurance companies.

In the candidate's own words, from the California Official Voter Information Guide, November 3, 2026 General Election: Candidate Statements, p. 7. Statements aren't fact-checked by the elections office or by us.

“The former San Francisco supervisor succeeded in securing free community college for city residents, the state’s first $15 minimum wage ordinance and a tenant-protection ordinance to avoid unjust evictions. Kim wants to establish “natural disaster insurance for all,” a state-run authority funded by premiums paid to insurance companies that would guarantee coverage for wildfires and floods.” (CalMatters via LAist)
