LMTA Members-This will be the last plea from TruckPAC for the Primary Election, but we will continue to remind you to early vote or vote on October 14!
Many of the races below are heads up races between trial lawyers and the business community. We are seeing the trial lawyers PACs spending lots of money in key legislative races across the state. They, in fact, have made some adjustments recently totally killing efforts in some races to move most of their resources to races they believe are key. We need to do the same.
I’m asking you today to click the link associated with their campaigns below and send them a contribution. The trial lawyers are sending mail daily and running TV ads. Campaigns are expensive and we need to ensure these pro-trucking candidates have the resources they need to get their messages out.
Top 9 NEEDED RACES: (All TruckPAC Endorsed candidates)
