Republicans Against TLR

Exposing TLR’s Liberal Agenda and Advocating for Policy that Protects Texans.

[Republicans Against TLR @RATLRinc]

TLR wants to change the law and screw Texans over in the name of being good for business. Texas is already great for business! We don't need TLR and their anti Texan policies.

[Governor Abbott Press Office @GovAbbottPress]

Texas ranks #1 in America with 57 Fortune 500 headquarters.

Companies invest confidently in Texas because of our welcoming business climate, predictable regulatory environment, and skilled, growing workforce.

[Adam Loewy @LoewyLawFirm]

Drivers like this are all over Texas roads and TLR (@lawsuitreform) spent all last Session trying to make their companies immune from lawsuits.

If this happened in Texas, TLR doesn't want your jury to know the driver doesn't speak English.

"Local police confirm the driver of this motorcoach — a man from China who became a U.S. citizen — doesn’t speak English. He received his commercial drivers license from New York State in 2024. "

Update on the tragic bus crash in Virginia:

Five people are dead, including a 13-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, after the driver of a motorcoach slammed into stopped traffic on I-95.

@FMCSA Administrator Derek Barrs and our investigators are on the ground at the crash site working with the @NTSB.  

Local police confirm the driver of this motorcoach — a man from China who became a U.S. citizen — doesn’t speak English. He received his commercial drivers license from New York State in 2024.

Unacceptable. This is exactly why we are holding states’ accountable, enforcing the rules of the road, and cracking down on drivers who can’t speak English.

If you can’t be properly trained, read our road signs, or communicate with law enforcement, you have no business driving a bus.

Our investigators are reviewing New York licensing records, training documentation, and the driver's history. Any company, trainer, or school that contributed to putting an unqualified driver on the road will face intense scrutiny.

We’ll share more updates soon.

My prayers are with the loved ones of the innocent lives lost and those who were hurt in this horrific crime.

If you're not a legal nerd, read it anyway. It's that good.

[Republicans Against TLR @RATLRinc]

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas gets it! Why does TLR want to keep this information hidden from a jury?

“An illegal alien who cannot read English road signs cannot drive an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer,” Thomas wrote. “Federal law and regulators prohibit states from providing commercial driver’s licenses to applicants unless they pass a driver’s test, sufficiently understand the English language, and show appropriate immigration status.”

Tonight their arch nemesis will win the GOP nomination for US Senate

Been quite a few years for our friends at @lawsuitreform

The US Supreme Court says trucking brokers can be held liable for the driver's they hire.

TLR meanwhile wants to hide from the jury if a driver can speak or read English among a host of other safety measures.

Which way modern man?

[GRANDPA’s FREE ADVICE @GOP_is_Gutless]

It took less than 24 hours for brokers to tighten the belt after the Supreme Court ruled that brokers could be held liable for carrier accidents WOW!

Today, 41 Texas Legislators sent a
formal letter to @GregAbbott_TX demanding he withdraw his threat against the City of Grand Prairie over the DFW Epic Eid celebration.

Abbott threatened to pull $530,000 in state funding unless the city canceled a private Muslim community event. The city had no choice. A joyful Eid celebration, now in its third year, was canceled because of government coercion.

Faith communities rent city-owned facilities for private events across Texas every day. No governor has threatened funding over any of them. The difference here is not the structure of the event. It is who is gathering.

The harm is done, but it can be undone. We call on Governor Abbott to withdraw this threat immediately and make Grand Prairie whole.

Contact Governor Abbott and let him know: [email protected]

You know what's even crazier than telling @GregAbbott_TX taxpayers need to foot the bill for an Islamic only event? @TLRPAC donated to most of these Democrat Islamic apologists.

@KenPaxtonTX Thank you for fighting to keep Texans safe!

We need to figure out why TLR wanted to stop a jury from knowing if a truck driver could read or speak English.

NEW: Texas AG @KenPaxtonTX launches statewide probe into trucking schools accused of certifying unqualified, non-English-speaking CDL drivers.

Investigators say some programs cut corners with fast-track training and ignore federal safety requirements.

[Republicans Against TLR @RATLRinc]

From the article: "To get the best idea of how the money is shaping individual races, we excluded dollars that committees spent on overhead and investments, which can total as much as $15 million for groups like Texans for Lawsuit Reform."

Over $36 million on political activities in 1 cycle!

[Republicans Against TLR @RATLRinc]

How many elected officials can TLR buy with $21 million in THIS CYCLE ALONE?! Roughly 2.5x the next biggest donor.

The Austin swamp needs draining. #txlege
