Should we be using periods between TLR? --Masssiveego 02:19, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of my addition to acronym "TLR"[edit]

I added Texans for Lawsuit Reform to this article, but it was deleted. The entry as published includes quite a few very minor organizations under "TLR" such as the student-edited law journals Texas Law Review and Tulane Law Review, which have a combined circulation of a few thousand a year.

Even a minimal amount of fact checking will disclose the high significance of Texans for Lawsuit Reform. For example: --in every election year from 1994 through 2014, the Texans for Lawsuit Reform affiliated Political Action Committee has been the largest in Texas. --in every legislative session, TLR fields up to a dozen professional legislative advocates to advance its agenda. --TLR maintains a full-time Austin office with six full-time employees. --TLR is generally regarded as the most effective advocate for tort reform in Texas over the past 20 years, and as the most effective state tort reform group in the country. --in a negative sense, TLR was blasted in a Texas Monthly cover story several years ago that was based entirely on information furnished by the Texas Trial Lawyers Association; no other tort reform group was even mentioned. TLR was blamed for all of the alleged evils of tort reform enacted in Texas. TLR claims credit, not blame, for the even-handed reforms the trial lawyers hate. --Google "TLR" and the third entry is: Texans for Lawsuit Reform, www.tortreform.com. --click on the TLR website. The high activity level and prominence of TLR will be obvious, especially in comparison to the organizations actually published. Barrister noir (talk) 17:06, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
