surance, and

classification rating factors to determine where and

economic welfare of large numbers of consumers of auto-
mobile insurance who rely on such insurance for protec-
tion.

Commerce shall, by contract or directly, require each auto-
mobile insurance insurer who is engaged in interstate com-
merce to provide to the Secretary in writing information

surer to determine insurance rates which relate to
demographic factors such as population density,
roads per square mile, frequency of accidents, claim
severity, health costs, auto theft rates, and auto re-
pair costs, and
(2) classification factors used by the insurer in
rate determinations, including race, sex, gender,
marital status, type of automobile to be insured, use
of such automobile, and the place in which such
automobile will be used.
(b) PUBLICATION.—The Secretary of Commerce shall
provide for the publication of the information provided
under subsection (a).
(c) RECOMMENDATIONS AND REPORT.—On the basis
of the information submitted to the Secretary under sub-
section (a), the Secretary of Commerce shall make rec-
ommendations on making automobile insurance more af-
fordable and shall report such recommendations and such
information to the House of Representatives and the Sen-
ate.
(d) CONTRACT AUTHORITY.—The authority of the
Secretary of Commerce to enter into contracts to imple-
ment subsection (a) shall be effective for any fiscal year
only to such extent or in such amounts as are provided
in appropriation Acts.
SEC. 4. AFFECT OF LEGISLATION.
Section 3 shall not be deemed to affect the respon-
sibility and authority of the States to regulate the business
of insurance or any regulation or order of any State agen-
cy concerning or applicable to the business of insurance
if such regulation or order does not prevent compliance
with section 3.
