Millions Tune In as PACT Marks One-Year Anniversary and Emerges as a National Consumer Force

Washington, D.C. — In just one year, millions of American consumers have engaged with Protecting American Consumers Together (PACT) as it has exposed how lawsuit abuse undermines access to justice for victims, raises everyday costs for families, and advances meaningful legal reforms across the country.

Since its launch one year ago, PACT has rapidly built a national presence by meeting consumers where they are: on television, online, and in the news. Through high-impact media campaigns and state-level advocacy, PACT has helped turn lawsuit abuse into a mainstream consumer concern — reaching tens of millions of Americans and shaping the public conversation around affordability and legal accountability.

That growing attention is translating into real-world impact. In the past year, lawsuit abuse has moved from a niche policy debate to a national consumer issue — fueled by high-profile investigative reporting and state-level reforms. Major outlets, including the Los Angeles Times, have launched sweeping investigative series exposing how predatory legal practices exploit consumers and inflate costs. In New York, extensive reporting on staged crashes and insurance fraud has sharpened public scrutiny, while states like Florida, Georgia, and Michigan are showing what reform can deliver: lower costs, reduced litigation abuse, and savings for families. In Georgia, that momentum helped drive the passage of a comprehensive lawsuit abuse reform package signed into law last year. 

“From day one, our goal was simple: make sure consumers understand who’s really paying the price for lawsuit abuse,” said Lauren Zelt, Executive Director of PACT. “In just one year, millions of Americans have engaged with our message, policymakers are paying attention, and real reforms are moving forward. This momentum proves that when consumers are informed, change follows.”

PACT’s First-Year Highlights

At the state level, PACT executed campaigns combining paid advertising, earned media, grassroots engagement, and rapid response. These efforts helped elevate lawsuit abuse as a kitchen-table issue and contributed to meaningful legislative action, most notably in Georgia, where lawmakers passed comprehensive reforms aimed at lowering costs for consumers.

As PACT looks ahead to 2026, the organization is preparing to expand its footprint into additional states, building on the momentum of its first year. With a growing audience and proven campaign infrastructure, PACT plans to broaden the map and scale its efforts — bringing the consumer fight against lawsuit abuse to more states, more policymakers, and more Americans next year.
