CA-INSCOM: Who wants to be California's insurance commissioner? Your guide to the candidates [View all]
Picking the next insurance commissioner could be one of the most important decisions Californians make for their wallets this election year.
They may have seen a big increase in their insurance premiums in the past couple of years. They might know someone whose homeowners policy got canceled. Or perhaps they’re trying to rebuild after last year’s deadly Los Angeles County fires.
If you’re not sure what the insurance commissioner does, here’s a rundown:
- Regulates the nation’s largest property and casualty insurance market, which includes policies for homeowners, businesses, landlords, renters and drivers.
- Leads the Insurance Department, which reviews and approves premium rate increases.
- Regulates life, health and workers’ compensation insurance.
