Former Georgia lawmaker Mary Squires says she's running for insurance commissioner in 2010.
Squires served several terms in the state House of Representatives and Senate. In 2004, she made an unsuccessful bid for U.S. Senate as a Democrat. The Atlanta resident now serves as the executive director of the Georgia Society of Professional Benefit Administrators, Inc., a self-insured health care trade association. She's also director and CEO of the Olive Industry Association, a national agriculture research and trade association.
“I am excited to be the first candidate in the race for insurance commissioner," Squires said in a press release. "It is a very important position. The insurance commissioner impacts the quality of life for every day Georgians more than any other race in 2010."
