West Virginia Takes a Stand Against Lawsuit Abuse with New Reform  The trucking industry is celebrating a significant victory in West Virginia with the enactment of a crucial legal reform aimed at curbing lawsuit abuse. Recently signed into law by Governor Jim Justice, S.B.583 has introduced a cap on non-economic damage awards at $5 million. This move is a response to longstanding concerns about the exploitative practices in civil litigation that have not only affected the trucking industry but also imposed additional costs on consumers through higher insurance premiums and product prices. American Trucking Associations (ATA) President and CEO Chris Spear commended the West Virginia Legislature and Governor Justice for implementing what he describes as a “commonsense reform.” According to Spear, the trucking industry plays a pivotal role in the U.S. economy by delivering essential goods and supporting quality jobs. He criticized the misuse of the civil litigation system by…

He argued that the reform would have prevented the civil litigation system from being exploited for profit by the plaintiffs’ bar, thus reducing the financial burden on the trucking industry and ultimately on consumers through lower insurance rates and…

The SpeechwriterOne summer morning, seven months after he had turned 80, my husband, Dick Goodwin, came down the stairs, clumps of shaving cream on his earlobes, singing, “The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye,” from the musical Oklahoma!“Why so chipper?” I asked.“I had a flash,” he said, looking over the headlines of the three newspapers I had laid out for him on the breakfast table in our home in Concord, Massachusetts. Putting them aside, he started writing down numbers. “Three times eight is 24. Three times 80 is 240.”“Is that your revelation?” I asked.“Look, my 80-year life span occupies more than a third of our republic’s history. That means that our democracy is merely three ‘Goodwins’ long.”I tried to suppress a smile.“Doris, one Goodwin ago, when I was born, we were in the midst of the Great Depression. Pearl Harbor happened on December 7, 1941, my 10th birthday….
