State Regulation

Insurance is regulated by the states because Congress delegated regulation to the states with no standards for regulatory quality. In this section we review the quality of state regulation, looking at several specific areas where consumers might be harmed by inadequate regulatory presence. We call for reform in several key regulatory areas.
