Lawmakers split on tort reform bill's fairness
South Carolina lawmakers critique the House tort reform bill after three hours of debate. Senator Glenn McConnell says the measure fails to address major civil justice changes. Freshman Rep Del Baker and Rep Larry Martin argue the bill protects lawyers and will raise litigation and insurance costs.
