The Wisconsin state Senate voted unanimously to confirm the appointment of Sean Dilweg as Commissioner of Insurance to head up the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance (OCI). Dilweg was appointed by Governor Doyle on Dec. 29, 2006, to succeed outgoing Insurance Commissioner Jorge Gomez.
“It was an honor to be selected by Governor Doyle for this new role, and I appreciate the quick confirmation vote by the Senate,” said Sean Dilweg, Commissioner of Insurance. “I look forward to working with the governor and the legislature, the staff at OCI and all those affected by the insurance marketplace to keep the Wisconsin insurance market healthy, productive and competitive.”
Dilweg has come from a long background of public service, working most recently as the executive assistant at the State Department of Administration, where he worked closely with the restructuring of the Health Insurance Risk Sharing Plan (HIRSP).
Prior to that, Dilweg worked as an aide to state legislators and a lobbyist for Essie Consulting Group. Dilweg also has extensive experience with state government, working as lead policy advisor for members of the Joint Committee on Finance from 1998 to 2000 and also as committee clerk for the Senate Committee on Environment and Energy from 1995 to 2000.
Dilweg emphasized his goal as commissioner to work together with consumers, legislators, insurers and agents to keep the Wisconsin insurance marketplace strong and accessible. He also stressed utilizing the vast expertise of many OCI staff members to accomplish this goal.
Dilweg will serve as Wisconsin’s 35th Insurance Commissioner.
