Changes are coming to the Auto Insurance Act and Insurance Companies Act in two bills, being introduced today. #nlpoli
There will be no insurance cap.

Instead, the current $2,500 regulated deductible is doubling, to $5,000. #nlpoli
Taxi drivers with good records will now have more options than just being lumped in at an industry rate. #nlpoli
In a first for Canada, as of Aug 1 a new "pay for play" program will deny access to the uninsured fund for uninsured drivers at fault in a crash.

IE: If you're uninsured and responsible for a crash, you're on your own. #nlpoli

The Senate education committee will be starting any minute. For new bills being heard today, we will be particularly watching HB 1629 and HB 1004. Here's the full agenda: iga.in.gov/documents/33f1…
Chairman Raatz tells members that he won't be hearing HB 1002 and HB 1209 today. Amendments for these bills are still likely being worked on.
Committee is now considering HB 1003. Members amended the bill by consent to add some more reporting info to be collected. Bill would set goals for schools to spend at least 85% of their education funding on classroom expenses, including teacher salaries. Bill passes 8-2.

Question Period underway.

Opposition Leader Ches Crosbie starts it off.

Crosbie begins with auto insurance rates. Asks for an update on specific actions being considered. @VOCMNEWS #NLpoli
Premier Ball says they want to work closely with the taxi industry and is working with the minister responsible.

Crosbie: we have the highest auto insurance rates in Atlantic Canada as we are told. When will we see changes? @VOCMNEWS #NLpoli
Ball: industry has a request for a meeting with me, and it’s something important they will do. This is a 20 year problem. They want to find a solution.

Crosbie: it’s not only taxi drivers who are impacted by the cost of insurance. Can the Premier share their plan to reduce?

.@NYTimes says the typical federal worker has missed $5,000 in pay so far due to the #TrumpShutdown. Good analysis.

But let’s discuss the long-term impact & how this disruption will hurt the personal finances of our fellow Americans for YEARS to come. /1

An economic shock, like the sudden loss of a paycheck, usually has very long-term negative effects. It’s not just a blip.

Even if people get their back pay, or land another job, this #TrumpShutdown will burn folks in many ways for months or years after it’s officially over. /2
A study from @pewtrusts found that when people face a major financial shock, including a significant reduction in income, by six months later, 50% of those impacted by the financial shock still hadn’t recovered. /3

If you work at a large tech company, won't you take a minute to go with me down the list of senators who just voted to confirm Kavanaugh?
John Barrasso of Wyoming, who is up for election this year, voted to confirm Kavanaugh. He has received $5,000 from Amazon and $9,000 from Google for his campaign. (Note that the maximum allowable is $10K)
Roy Blunt of Missouri, who voted to confirm Kavanaugh, received $1000 from Amazon.

On the 14th of this October, we will be rolling out a unique and affordable #insurance scheme to replace the current "3k AED" bank guarantee system. The MoU on the insurance scheme has been signed today with an Inusrance Pool represented by Dubai Insurance Company.

#UAE
H. E. Nasser Al Hamli: "With the new #insurance scheme, #UAE will be the first country to guarantee the wages of all workers in the private and domestic sectors"
Private sector establishments shall be able to get their bank gurantees refunded in the following two cases:
1- when a work permit is cancelled.
2- when they renew a work payment given that they buy an insurance policy instead.

@GOP "There was one problem: GOP tax plan included no guarantees for workers. If companies wanted to lay off thousands of employees, “tax reform” allowed them to do it. Or companies could pocket the money and boost their stock price. They could also simply offshore the jobs to Asia."
@GOP "Within weeks of the tax bill passing, America’s largest corporations started laying off workers. By February 2018, it became a feeding frenzy, with one company laying off over 5,000 employees for “restructuring.”
@GOP Here are 17 U.S. companies that laid off large numbers of employees after taking Trump’s tax cuts.
