A hidden “lawsuit tax” is hitting American families harder every year.

Skyrocketing lawsuit costs and nuclear verdicts are driving up insurance premiums, rideshare prices, food delivery costs, and everyday services.

Americans for Tax Reform estimates the average household is now paying more than $6,600 a year because of lawsuit abuse.

Billboard lawyers profit. Families pay the bill.

[ATR @taxreformer]

The average American family pays roughly $4,200 a year because of lawsuit abuse.

Higher car insurance. Higher home insurance. Higher costs throughout the economy.

Lauren Zelt of @pactconsumers and and @RyanPatrickTX of @lawsuitreform joined @GroverNorquist to discuss why.

Texas Means Business.

Corporate relocations are no longer limited to factories and regional offices. Companies are moving headquarters, legal operations, and corporate registrations to Texas at an accelerating pace.

The reason is straightforward: Texas offers a faster-moving business climate, specialized business courts, and a regulatory environment focused on growth instead of political theater.

Which do you think is the next major company to plant its flag in Texas?

[Mayes Middleton @mayes_middleton]

Thank you Texas! We must unite to stop the woke left in November. 🇺🇸

[TLR @lawsuitreform]

Companies continue to move to Texas.

They’re choosing a state with a more predictable legal system and lower risk.

That decision drives jobs and investment, benefiting Texas families.

[Ryan Patrick @RyanPatrickTX]

New York is left complaining rather than competing.

[Leave Delaware @LeaveDelaware]

🚨 A coalition of TX business associations is calling out proxy advisors for trying to block moves to Texas.

Days after ISS told Exxon shareholders to vote against the company's NJ→TX redomicile, Texas is firing back:

"Their opposition to Texas is not based on economic data or legal reality, but rather on a desire to maintain leverage over corporate boards via jurisdictions that favor activist agendas over shareholder returns."

Must read below.

Texas Means Business!


Companies move to Texas because we offer something increasingly rare: stability, regulatory reforms, predictability in our courts, and a business climate focused on growing prosperity and opportunity in our communities.

The rising voices complaining about Texas are losing companies and residents because they gave up on competing a long time ago. To those fleeing, we say, “Welcome to Texas, where the American Dream is attainable and sustainable.”

When insurance becomes unaffordable, Texans do the math.

Some drop coverage. Some delay repairs. Some take the risk and hope nothing happens.

Runaway verdicts, rising premiums, and dark money litigation are making Texas roads more expensive and more dangerous. It’s time to end the abuse that’s making insurance unaffordable.

This is a great deal negotiated by @POTUS with his counterpart in Finland. We will get medium icebreakers ASAP while @DavieDefense makes significant investments in their shipyard in Galveston, TX, adding both competition and capacity to the US maritime industrial base!

@mayes_middleton Mayes will make a great AG.

[Ryan Patrick @RyanPatrickTX]

I've known @mayes_middleton for years. He's a good family man, and will make a terrific AG. He supported me nearly 15 years ago when I was a District Court judge and I'll be voting for him in the runoff.

[Dan Patrick @DanPatrick]

The last time @chiproytx worked in the Texas Attorney General’s office, he was escorted out of the building. AG @KenPaxtonTX gave him a choice: be fired or resign. The reason was his continued insubordination to AG Paxton.

Ken Paxton was recently overheard in an audio clip saying, “I’m going to vote for @mayes_middleton” and that he “could not imagine [Chip Roy] stepping into that role.”

I’m casting my vote for Mayes Middleton, too.

[TLR @lawsuitreform]

Texas became the land of opportunity because we built a climate where people can work, build, invest, and grow.

That advantage can be lost if lawsuit abuse drives up costs and makes our economy harder to sustain.

Protect the Texas Miracle!

🚨BREAKING: DELL Technologies (NYSE: $DELL ) Has Filed to LEAVE DELAWARE for Texas

$137 BILLION market cap.

The filing points to a $1 BILLION Delaware settlement Dell paid in 2023.

$266.7 MILLION of it went straight to the attorneys.

Why Texas:

- Reduces frivolous, opportunistic lawsuits

- Business-friendly regulatory framework built for growth

- A new Business Court designed for complex corporate disputes

[Bill Gurley @bgurley]

Once Exxon and Dell do it, its no longer a "fad" or something "unusual" companies do. If you are on a public board, re-domiciling can protect your shareholders from ambulance chasers & outsized decisions (see data). Simply smart & good governance. You should take it seriously.

[TLR @lawsuitreform]

America cannot grow at full strength while abusive litigation drains capital out of the economy.

More than $500 billion in direct tort costs means fewer projects, fewer jobs, less investment, and higher costs passed down to families and small businesses.

Lawmakers who care about affordability know where to start.

WSJ out today with the anecdote to my point below.

[Chris Walker @WalkerATX]

It's 1989 in Austin and you're watching the Texas State Capitol literally crumble to the ground. 🏛️⚠️ Pieces of granite were falling off the facade before the massive restoration began. @fox7austin #txlege
