We have just finished the 80th legislative session, the seventh in which TLR has engaged. And while every session is different, some things don’t change. Our supporters all over the state stay in touch with lawmakers between sessions. Our Political Action Committee engages in judicial, legislative and statewide elections. Our legal team researches issues extensively and drafts our proposals meticulously. Our consultants and lobbyists carefully think through strategy and tactics. And the entire TLR team works patiently and persistently throughout the session.

The Texas Legislature, with the support of Governor Perry, Lt. Governor Dewhurst and Speaker Craddick, has enacted the most comprehensive reform of civil justice laws in our nation’s history. Legislators listened to their constituents, considered the public policies at issue, and studied the often complex and arcane details of each bill.
