Mary Taylor in Gubernatorial campaign websites
On Corporations:
Common Sense Initiative: reform Ohio's regulatory policies
Taylor was sworn in as Ohio's 65th Lieutenant Governor on January 10, 2011, the same day Governor John R. Kasich named her to lead CSI Ohio--the "Common Sense Initiative" to reform Ohio's regulatory policies, as well as to serve as the director of the
Ohio Department of Insurance. These two assignments dovetail together and provide the perfect launching pad for working to make Ohio a jobs--and business--friendly state. CSI Ohio will review
Ohio's regulatory system to eliminate excessive and duplicative rules that stand in the way of job creation and the regulatory mission of the Department of Insurance is a good place to start.
As Auditor of State, Taylor transformed the office into a nationally-recognized, 21st-century government auditing office.
