Michigan has some of the highest auto insurance rates in the country. There are many factors to this problem and many things that could be done in part or whole to begin reducing the rates. I fought for six years to see the Catastrophic Claims Association changed to be more transparent and to reduce fraud. I also worked to give drivers choices in the level of coverage and to control the runaway hospital costs that are driving up the Personal Injury Protection. Unfortunately, most of the reforms to this program have remained unattainable due to politics in south east Michigan. I will not stop fighting to see real relief from this unaffordable and unsustainable tax placed on each vehicle we own.
