Consumer Protection Without Overreach
Oklahomans deserve an Insurance Commissioner who protects people, not bureaucracy. Chris Merideth believes in fair, firm enforcement — but without growing government or micromanaging the industry.
What that means:
-
Enforcing laws that protect families and seniors from fraud, abuse, and bad-faith practices.
-
Holding insurance companies accountable while ensuring they can still compete and innovate.
-
Increasing transparency so consumers know what they’re buying — and what they’re paying for.
Government should be a referee, not a roadblock. Chris Merideth will keep the playing field fair without tipping the scales.
Business-Friendly Reforms
Small businesses are the backbone of Oklahoma’s economy — and they’re too often crushed by outdated, confusing, or unnecessary insurance regulations.
Chris Merideth will:
-
Modernize and streamline regulations to support innovation and economic growth.
-
Make it easier for new insurance providers to enter the market, especially those serving rural areas.
-
Cut red tape and delays that burden entrepreneurs, agents, and business owners.
The goal? A competitive, open insurance market that works for Main Street, not just Wall Street.
LOWER COSTS, GREATER ACCESS
Oklahomans are paying more and getting less. Chris will fight to bring down premiums, improve transparency, and expand access, especially in rural and underserved areas.
How?
-
Push for market-based solutions that reward efficiency and competition.
-
Work with lawmakers to reduce hidden costs and unnecessary mandates that drive up rates.
-
Ensure fair pricing practices while respecting the role of the private sector.
When consumers can compare, choose, and trust their coverage, costs go down and quality goes up.
OKLAHOMA FIRST
Too often, insurance policy is dictated by bureaucrats in Washington. Chris will fight for state sovereignty and protect Oklahoma values.
That means:
-
Resisting federal mandates that hurt Oklahoma consumers or restrict business growth.
-
Supporting legislation that puts more decision-making power in the hands of local leaders and citizens.
-
Being a conservative leader to keep Oklahoma in control of its future.
Chris will never let Oklahoma be a testing ground for big government experiments. This campaign is about putting Oklahoma first — always.
