Legislation

The 2011 Legislature convened January 10.  The LRC will continue to have a strong presence in Olympia working to defeat the trial lawyers’ self-serving agenda to expand liability.  At the same time, the LRC will advocate for legislation to provide commonsense liability protection for our state taxpayers, businesses, healthcare providers and not-for-profit organizations. 

During session, the LRC will update the Bill Tracker and provide written commentary on the week's events. To subscribe the LRC Weekly Legislative Update, contact Dana Childers.
