Summary
The bill sets up the Strengthen Illinois Homes Fund and a pilot grant program that gives low‑income homeowners financial help to upgrade homes to meet wind‑ and hail‑resistance standards. It also requires insurers to offer premium discounts for fortified homes and an optional rider to cover upgrade costs, and adds a climate‑risk disclosure requirement for insurers. The goal is to lower damage from severe weather and improve insurance transparency.
