Governor Whitmer Announces $3 Billion in Refunds for Michigan Drivers

(December 7, 2021 6:42 AM) Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (DIFS) today announced that the Michigan Catastrophic Claims Association (MCCA) has acted upon the governor’s call to return surplus funds to Michigan policyholders and will immediately begin the process of refunding $400 per vehicle to Michigan drivers. Drivers are expected to receive checks in the second quarter of 2022.  “These refunds and the recently announced statewide average rate reductions are lowering costs for every Michigan driver,” said Governor Whitmer. “Michiganders have paid into the catastrophic care fund for decades, and I am pleased that the MCCA developed this plan so quickly after unanimously approving my request to return surplus funds to the pockets of Michiganders. We are working together to put Michigan drivers first, and I am directing DIFS to ensure that the MCCA and Michigan’s auto insurance companies accurately, fairly, and promptly issue these refunds.”  “DIFS stood with Governor Whitmer in calling upon the MCCA to return surplus funds to Michiganders with auto insurance, and we applaud the MCCA for taking the necessary next steps to deliver the largest refund possible to drivers while maintaining the viability of the fund,” said DIFS Director Anita Fox…

Boys Basketball Onsted 69, Michigan Center 56: The Cardinals trailed by as many as 20 points at home on Monday, but pulled within nine points with just under three minutes remaining in the game. The Wildcats featured too much Ayden Davis in the first half as the 6-foot, 9-inch all-state player had 17 points and a dozen rebounds.  “We played behind the post in the second half and sent a double team at him (Davis) … but he is a load,” MCHS Coach Travis Gaddy said. “Our defensive intensity made them (Onsted) play at a frantic pace.” Michigan Center trailed 21-13 at the end of the first quarter as Nikolas Kosmet scored six points. The Cardinals were down 40-23 at halftime.  Onsted extended the lead to 18 points in the third quarter before MCHS hit four 3-pointers in the final quarter. Verlandez Williams and Brody Shannon of Michigan Center both scored eight points in the final quarter. Williams finished with 16 points and seven steals in the game.
