Sen. Jeff Wentworth's Tort Reform Record
March 1, 2012
TLR PAC Press Release
TLR PAC Press Release
A review of Senator Jeff Wentworth’s record on civil justice issues – and especially his record in recent years – makes it clear that he is philosophically aligned with the plaintiffs’ trial bar, a very narrow segment not only of Texas society but of the Texas Bar itself. There is no other way to explain why a Republican Senator would align himself with the handful of plaintiff trial lawyers who fund about 85% of the campaign expenditures for liberal and Democrat candidates in Texas elections. Wentworth’s tort record is essentially equivalent to that of the Senate’s most liberal member, Democrat Rodney Ellis of Houston.

December 2010 Advocate: A Sweeping Victory for Lawsuit Reform
The November 2nd elections in Texas were not only traditional partisan contests, but also a reflection of the continuing battle to maintain and improve the successful lawsuit reforms of the last fifteen years, which have helped make Texas the best state in the nation in which to start or grow a business and create jobs. A handful of personal injury trial lawyers spent millions of dollars in a futile effort to elect legislators who would roll back or diminish tort reform. One trial lawyer, Steve Mostyn, put in nearly ten million dollars of his own money to influence Texas elections in this cycle. In contrast, the funding for TLR PAC, and therefore for the candidates we support, comes from scores of different professions and occupations, including homemakers, consultants, retailers, ranchers, farmers, manufacturers, miners, developers, entrepreneurs, physicians, lawyers, accountants … and the list goes on.
