Anderson Says, If Elected, He'll Open Insurance Office On The Coast

Oct 4, 2007 07:08 PM

Gary Anderson says if he's elected Mississippi's Insurance Commissioner, he will open an office here on the Coast to help speed up existing claims against insurance companies.

Anderson made that promise, during a campaign stop in Biloxi Thursday.

Anderson continues to pledge not to take money from insurance companies. Thursday, he also shared his plans to reduce fraud, lower insurance rates, and remove confusing language from those insurance policies.

"For so long, the policies may say one thing on the front cover and then when you flip it over on the back, and use a magnifying glass and three lawyers to interpret, it exempts the very thing that it says it will do on the very front side. I want to make sure that when the citizens of this state purchase insurance, they know exactly what it covers and what it will not cover," Anderson said.

Anderson faces Republican Mike Chaney in the November general election.
