Senate committee kills 6 coastal insurance bills, making overhaul unlikely | al.com: "MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- A Senate committee killed six coastal insurance bills on Wednesday, making it unlikely that the Legislature will pass any more homeowners insurance overhauls this year, lawmakers said.
The Senate Banking and Insurance Committee voted down everything from a major rewrite of disclosure requirements for insurance companies to a measure that sought merely to change the informal name of Alabama's insurer of last resort."
