O'Malley: New Commissioner Will Fight for Consumers
posted 5:33 am Fri September 07, 2007 - Annapolis, MD.
Tyler does not have an insurance industry background, unlike insurance commissioners appointed by former governors.
The job requires regulating the state's insurers.
Before serving as O'Malley's legal counsel, Tyler was a Baltimore solicitor and a deputy attorney general.
The governor said he wanted Tyler "to stand up to wealthy powerful interests" and said the appointment marks a shift toward consumer advocacy.
