Press Release –  WVCALA Issues Post-Primary "Dirty Dozen" List




 

West Virginia Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse has continued conducting its regular campaign finance research report and has announced its post-primary “Dirty Dozen” list of legislative candidates in West Virginia who have accepted the most money from personal injury lawyers.

Personal injury lawyers have made substantial contributions to legislative candidates from both political parties in the primary, including many newer Delegates. 

 

“The more things change, the more they stay the same, with wealthy personal injury lawyers injecting large sums of cash into candidates’ campaigns regardless of political affiliation and geographic location. It’s particularly sad to see some of our formerly pro-legal reform candidates turn to the dark side,” said Greg Thomas with West Virginia CALA. “Our state’s citizens deserve to know who is receiving large campaign donations and from whom. They also deserve to know what these candidates promised the trial bar lobby in order to receive these earmarked donations.”  

 

WV CALA will continue to monitor contributions from personal injury lawyers to legislative candidates as campaign finance reports for the general election are submitted in the lead-up to November.
