Plain-language change summary

The latest version of SB 70 removes specific language about insurance policies that name additional insureds required by contracts. This change simplifies the insurance provisions by eliminating the detailed exclusions related to construction projects. It's important because it could broaden the types of insurance coverage that companies need to consider, potentially impacting project costs and liability management.
