Washington, D.C. – Today, Protecting American Consumers Together (PACT) Executive Director Lauren Zelt issued the following statement after the Georgia Senate voted to pass SB 69, a supplemental bill aimed at cracking down on third-party litigation financing, in a floor vote today: 

“Today, the Georgia legislature took another step forward towards creating a more affordable and fair environment for families and small businesses in the state,” said PACT Executive Director Lauren Zelt. “Georgia’s current legal system is broken, and we look forward to seeing lawsuit abuse reform legislation pass through the Georgia House and on to Governor Kemp’s desk.  SB 68 and SB 69 increase transparency, lower costs for consumers, and ensure Georgia’s justice system provides respect and dignity for all.”

Note: PACT, a 501(c)(4) national advocacy group, announced earlier this week a second television ad airing statewide, part of  a $1M+ campaign  supporting Governor Kemp’s efforts. The second ad can be viewed here. Additional information on PACT’s Georgia efforts can be read here.
