DALLAS (AP) - Texas lawmakers hope to rein in homeowners' rising insurance bills even as they acknowledge there's only so much they can do to tackle costs. Legislators have advanced bills to limit how much insurance companies can hike rates and help homeowners make their homes more insurable. They've also sought to compel insurers to be more upfront with homeowners when they decide to yank coverage, or deny it in the first place. Copyright 2025 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
