Millions In Fire-Ravaged California Risk Losing Home Insurance

A California moratorium guaranteeing insurance in wildfire-threatened areas lapsed Saturday, putting 347,000 homes in Pasadena and other Los Angeles foothills communities at the mercy of the market.

In all, 18 percent of the state’s households could effectively lose protection, the largest single group since the moratorium law took effect three years ago.
