As Congressional members witnessed first-hand during their August town hall meetings, the American people overwhelmingly support medical liability reform as a way to reduce costs and improve the quality of care. Unfortunately, as this debate approaches the finish line, it seems that the trial lawyer lobby is cashing in all its political chips to retain the status quo.

Plaintiffs' lawyers are the only group that has not been asked to make sacrifices in the health care debate, which is why they have been fighting tooth and nail against any reforms that could impact their lucrative medical lawsuit businesses. Instead of siding with the national trial lawyer lobby, our elected officials should listen to the will of the American people and include meaningful medical liability reforms in the health care bills moving through Congress.

Listen to our new national radio ad calling on Congress to listen to voters and include this important reform.
