You’re sending your message to the wrong guy.

It so happens that George W. Bush signed a host of legal reforms when he was governor of Texas that transformed the Lone Star State from one of the most litigious to one of the least.

Caps on punitive damages discourage litigants from trying to parlay claims of negligible economic damages into multimillion courtroom jackpots.

Joint-and-several liability laws in many states allow a litigant suing multiple targets to seek any damages regardless of a given plaintiff's negligence.

Limits on judge and court shopping prevent litigants from seeking out venues where they think they are most likely to get favorable hearing. Claims must be brought in venues with a substantial connection to the injury.

The results of the Texas legal reforms: Personal injury lawsuits have decreased 30 percent since 1995. Texas businesses and consumers saved nearly $3 billion in insurance rate reductions alone.

You should be sending your message to the Democrats in congress they are the ones that have the trial lawyers in their back pockets and would like nothing more than to see these frivolous lawsuits continue.

No! George W. may do something, but writing a Democrate is worthless.
