Democratic Assemblyman Mike Feuer of Los Angeles said the bill had too few votes in the Senate to pass, according to the report. Senate Democrats were divided on the bill when it passed the Assembly in June.
Mr. Feuer said he will try again next year. The bill would have given the state insurance commissioner and other regulators the power to reject or modify rate increases they deemed “excessive.”
