Letter: Kreidler creates problems

By Don Howard, Camas
Published: November 8, 2021, 6:00am

Having ignored the Legislature and a Thurston County judge, our misguided Insurance Commissioner Mike Kreidler has set out on his own personal agenda. He is determined to allow homeowner/auto insurance premiums to skyrocket on people, including low-income seniors and families, who have fought to maintain good credit ratings. His intent is for those people to shoulder the responsibilities for those people who have poor credit ratings even though stats show they are a far greater risk. These insurance increases are immediate and devastating to low-income families without warning.

If you object to Commissioner Kreidler’s misuse of power, now is the time to file a complaint with the Office of Insurance Commissioner. He is currently a man on a mission while relentlessly trying to blame insurance companies for all the problems that he alone has created.
