Consumer Protection in Action: Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey Fights Fraud & Drives Down Rates

Thursday, May 7, 2026 — 6:00 PM

East Wake Republican Club Monthly Meeting

North Carolina’s Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey is a lifelong conservative, small businessman, and the first Republican ever elected to this critical statewide office. With more than 25 years of hands-on experience as an insurance agent, agency owner, manager, and supervisor — plus his roots growing up on a Guilford County produce farm — Commissioner Causey brings real-world perspective to the job of protecting North Carolina families and businesses from rising costs and fraud.

Join us as he delivers a powerful update on the work of the North Carolina Department of Insurance: regulating the insurance industry, cracking down on fraud that costs consumers millions, pushing for more competition to lower auto, home, and health insurance rates, and serving as State Fire Marshal to keep our communities safe.

Why This Matters

Every North Carolinian pays insurance premiums — on their cars, homes, businesses, and health coverage. When fraud goes unchecked or government regulation stifles competition, rates go up and families suffer. Commissioner Causey has made it his mission to fight fraud, say “no” to unjustified rate increases, and bring more competition into the market so hardworking Tar Heels keep more of their money.

As the first Republican Insurance Commissioner in state history, he has expanded fraud investigations (with 380 arrests in 2025 alone), delivered real savings to consumers, and strengthened protections for the very people we represent in East Wake. In a time when government too often sides with bureaucrats or big interests, Mike Causey is a Republican who puts North Carolina families first.

This is your government. These are your dollars. Come hear directly from the man on the front lines protecting them.
