State Farm wants to raise its rates by about 22% for California homeowners, which would affect about one million people.

Ricardo Lara said he will look at information provided by State Farm before revisiting his previous decision to reject the company’s emergency rate hike.

Earlier this month, State Farm — the state’s largest home insurance provider — asked the California Department of Insurance to approve statewide rate increases averaging 22% for homeowners. It also requested a 15% increase for renters and condo owners and a 33% hike for rental owners.

Commissioner Ricardo Lara had asked for the meeting in which he and Consumer Watchdog will sit down with State Farm reps in Oakland.

California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara rejected State Farm’s “emergency” premium increase of 22% on average for California homeowners.

Commissioner Ricardo Lara scheduled a meeting with State Farm to hear their justification for the rate increase.

California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara, representatives from State Farm General and Consumer Watchdog, a consumer advocacy group, met in person on Wednesday to discuss the insurance company’s recent price hike request.
