Double Texas-Science, Technology, Engineering and Math academies
"Double the number of Texas-Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (T-STEM) academies from 46 to 92, significantly increasing the number of students attending the academies."
Let Texas judges dismiss frivolous lawsuits
“If a lawsuit is frivolous, Texas judges should be able to dismiss the case immediately before the legal bills pile up.”
Require the legislature to say when it creates a new cause of action in statute
Require “the legislature to explicitly state when they are creating a new cause of action in statute, forcing courts to read statutes strictly and providing only those rights and remedies the legislature intended.”
Increase access to courts for legitimate claims
Make the court system “more accessible to Texans with legitimate claims without the incurred costs associated with drawn out trials. Lawsuits with claims between $10,000 and $100,000 should have expedited trial settings and limited discovery in order to get litigants in and out of court quickly and allow swifter recovery for damages.”
