REV. AL SHARPTON RESPONDS TO NY GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL’S PLAN TO BRING DOWN COSTS OF VEHICLE INSURANCE RATES

NEW YORK, NY (February 26, 2026) —“Working families shouldn’t have to choose between putting food on the table, paying rent, or keeping their car on the road. Sky-high insurance premiums are a tax on survival and opportunity. Governor Hochul’s plan ensures that those who are genuinely harmed are protected, while cracking down on the practices that drive up costs for everyone else. This is a step toward justice and real economic relief for everyday New Yorkers facing an affordability crisis.”
