Gov. Greg Abbott is leading the push to protect businesses from coronavirus-related lawsuits. He made liability protections an emergency item for state lawmakers to tackle this session.
"They have gone above and beyond throughout the pandemic to open and to operate safely. And yet, those same businesses now face the crosshairs of lawsuits," Gov. Abbott said during his State of the State address.
Texas has seen among the most COVID-related lawsuits in the country, but workplace-specific cases are significantly fewer according to a law firm tracking coronavirus litigation.
