U.S. Representative Mike Collins (R-GA-10) chimes in to urge the Georgia General Assembly “to support Governor Kemp’s tort reform efforts.” 

According to Collins: 

“Georgia’s current legal environment, plagued by frivolous lawsuits, inflated damages, and nuclear verdicts, acts like a hidden tax on families and businesses that are driving up insurance premiums and the cost of goods and services. That’s why I am working with leaders in Congress and at home to push for tort reform that will level the playing field, protect consumers, and keep Georgia competitive for generations to come.” 

“Governor Brian Kemp’s comprehensive tort reform package strikes the right balance by protecting every Georgian’s right to justice while stabilizing the business climate. This isn’t about taking away anyone’s access to the courts, it’s about eliminating legal loopholes that trial lawyers have used to extract massive payouts-judgements that come at the expense of Georgia’s taxpayers, small businesses, and job creators.” 

“We all want a legal system that works—one that provides justice for those who have been wronged without punishing businesses and consumers with hidden costs. These reforms put families and consumers first by cutting down on lawsuit abuse and stabilizing insurance rates. They also send a clear message: Georgia is serious about remaining a leader in business and economic opportunity.”
