I’m launching my campaign for California Insurance Commissioner, the most important job you might not have heard of. The $3 trillion insurance industry has, for too long, put profits over people. It’s time to hold them accountable and stand up to corporate greed. I have three major policy plans to make insurance affordable and accessible for working people: Natural Disaster Insurance for All, caps on insurance profits and CEO pay, and guaranteed healthcare for kids. I’m the only candidate who has pledged not to take a dime from insurance companies. It’s time to put the Insurance Commissioner office to work for the people of California. Join me today: Janekim.org

Unlike my opponent, I’m not part of the “Sacramento crowd” my opponent refers to with multiple campaign slush funds. I’m proud to be independent of the insurance industry — and all corporate PACs.

Steven Donziger knows what it takes to stand up to corporate power. He took on Chevron, won, and was put in prison for it. And now he’s backing our campaign to take on the insurance industry. Thank you @stevendonziger for your endorsement!

Legislate. Negotiate. Regulate. That’s the job I’m running for, and that’s what I’ve spent my career doing.

They’ll tell you I want too much for California. I’ll take that critique.

The status quo isn’t the safe route — it’s the most expensive one.

I’ll make sure insurance companies actually focus on the business they’re in: paying claims when disaster strikes.

The FAIR plan has a secret board, gives our money to private companies, and charges us for any losses. There’s got to be a better way.

Insurance went from being a form of mutual aid to one of the most speculative, profitable industries on the planet.
