California’s plan that provides insurance to homeowners who can’t get private coverage needs $1 billion more to pay out claims related to the Los Angeles wildfires, the state Insurance Department said Tuesday.

In the aftermath of the Los Angeles fires, the FAIR plan gets a $1 billion bailout — the latest indication that California’s home insurance market is on shaky footing.

The move will likely lead to higher costs for households across the state, and may push more insurers to leave, intensifying a home insurance crisis.

California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara has requested $1 billion in additional funds from the commission's member insurers to shore up the state-backed FAIR Plan after wildfires ravaged swathes of land in and around Los Angeles last month.
