Tell me more: These derogatory campaigns are being bankrolled by powerful personal injury lawyers who are deliberately hiding their identities while pushing false narratives to protect their financial interests and confuse Texas voters.
TLR Thoughts: Texans see through the big lies and dark money. In fact, more than 1,150 Texans, Texas job creators and associations stand in support of the meaningful reforms included in SB 30 (Schwertner)/HB 4806 (Bonnen) and SB 39 (Birdwell)/HB 4688 (Leach) through the Lone Star Economic Alliance (LSEA). TLR is a founding member of LSEA alongside the Texas Trucking Association and the Texas Food and Fuel Association. Together, TLR and LSEA are working to create a legal system that’s fair, transparent, and focused on relevant facts—not one that rewards manipulation and abuse.

Tell me more: In 2022 and 2023, the Florida Legislature enacted a series of reforms to end frivolous lawsuits and abusive tactics by certain personal injury lawyers while protecting people with legitimate legal claims. The benefits of those reforms are now kicking in.
In his words: “Critics claim reform enriches insurance companies, but Florida’s recent rate reductions and market stabilization prove these arguments are baseless. While premiums remain too high and require continued attention, there is no question that ending litigation abuse has made a positive difference.” – Paul Renner, former speaker of the Florida House (2022-24)
TLR Thoughts: As Texas lawmakers consider similar measures this session through SB 30/HB 4806, it’s clear that these reforms are essential to improving Texas’s broken legal system, making insurance more affordable and protecting consumers.
