Celebrating a 30-Year Legacy of Success

Texas has the eighth largest economy in the world and more Fortune 500 companies than any other state, but this has not happened by accident. It’s the result of hard work by volunteers from around the state and smart policy choices by our leadership and Legislature, including embracing tort reform 30 years ago.

“Improving our legal system starts with ensuring we elect competent and impartial judges to apply our laws and Constitution as written, without legislating from the bench.”
