I have walked through nearly every neighborhood in Delta, Dickinson and Menominee counties, getting to know the people I represent in the state Legislature.
Far too many homes have vehicles with Wisconsin license plates parked in the driveway. When I ask why, I always get the same answer: Michigan’s car insurance rates — the highest in the nation — are simply unaffordable. Sadly, many residents are buying cheaper car insurance and getting vehicles registered in neighboring states, or not buying any auto insurance at all.
