n its first six months, the Consumer Insurance Board has signed up nearly 4,000 members in the Chicago area. The group's goal, says Quinn, is simple: "better insurance protection, whether it is auto, life, or health--for lower prices."
Last spring Chicago's city clerk agreed to the Citizen's Insurance Board's request to include a letter by Ralph Nader on excessive auto-insurance rates in all vehicle-registration renewal notices. Within months, thousands joined the group. Teamsters Local 710 has promised to include Consumer Insurance Board information in its mailings. And Quinn says the Cook County clerk will include a Consumer Insurance Board letter in its bulk mail.
