Helmet Law Repeal

I just read in our local newspaper that there is a movement afoot in the Louisiana legislature to repeal ( for those over 18 )the mandatory motorcycle helmet law now in place. This movement has the blessing of our new governor, and the speaker of the House. If this happens, it will mark the second time such a law has been instated, then later repealed with a new administration.
I understand both sides. I understand the views of those who choose not to wear a helmet, but from a safety stand point, I will choose to always wear a helmet. That's my personal choice. I am; however, concerned that without such a law, motorcycle insurance rates in the state will increase. What are your thoughts ?
