Yesterday, the LEAD Class spent the day under the Gold Dome and with GTLA and the Civil Justice PAC leadership learning all about the political workings of GTLA. After hearing from Lt. Governor Casey Cagle and fellow GTLA member Senator Blake Tillery (R-Vidalia), the class was briefed by the Legislative Team on the hot topic issues for GTLA this Session and prepped to go advocate to their local elected officials on behalf of the Civil Justice System and your clients' rights. Their last stop was a quick visit with Gov. Nathan Deal, after which they departed for Manuel's Tavern for a crash course in PAC fundraising and the vital role that the Civil Justice PAC plays in the success of our organization. Here are a few snapshots from their day!

GTLA was recently featured in an Atlanta Journal Constitution article examining the work of the newly formed group, Georgians for Lawsuit Reform. Below is an excerpt:
"William Clark, the top lobbyist for the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association, said he hasn't heard of the group. He added, though, that it sounds like a U.S. Chamber-backed 'mouthpiece' that is 'determined to undermine the constitutional rights of Georgia citizens.'"
"'In the wake of the largest series of bank failures since the Great Depression, and after watching corporate scandal after corporate scandal unfold, now is hardly the time to lower the accountability of corporate directors and officers here in Georgia,' said Clark."
