Mississippians encouraged to use free resource to locate unclaimed life insurance benefits
SUMMARY: Mississippi Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney is urging residents to use the life insurance policy locator to find unclaimed benefits. Many beneficiaries are unable to locate their loved ones' policies, resulting in millions of dollars in unclaimed benefits each year. The policy locator, maintained by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, has helped over 3,500 Mississippi consumers claim $72 million in benefits since 2016. In the past year, nearly 1,500 Mississippians used the tool and found over $36 million in benefits. The tool is secure, confidential, and free, and participating insurers report any matches to insurance companies for contact with beneficiaries.

Republican Congressmen Michael Guest, Trent Kelly, and Mike Ezell supported McCarthy, while Congressman Bennie Thompson joined Democrats in removing him. The vote was sparked by Rep. Michael Guest, who accused McCarthy of breaching an agreement made in January. This is the first time a speaker has been ousted through a resolution, and it is unclear when lawmakers will vote on a new speaker. Rep. Patrick McHenry will serve as interim speaker.
