Remove the caps on non-economic damages in every state and deem it unconstitutional.
Why is this important?
“In the name of tort reform, a conspiracy of corporate interests and elected officials has thrown obstacles in the path of victims even getting their day in court, let alone financial judgments: gutted consumer protection laws, capped financial compensation, and drastically limited attorney's fees — to the point that they cannot afford to take cases. The justification for (what they call) reform is that runaway juries swayed by heart-wrenching cases award mega-millions in punitive damages that can hurt their bottom line — the dead, maimed, and injured be damned! In the name of all injured Americans past, present, and future, it’s time to reform tort reform — and call it what it is. “ Stephen L. Goldstein
