General Motors (GM) knew it would only take 57 cents to make its cars safer, but it chose to put profits over safety. GM was ultimately driven to safety by grieving parents and their attorney, who held GM accountable in the civil justice system.
But if GM had its way, the public would never have known about its deadly ignition switch scandal. For over a decade, GM used court secrecy clauses to hide its wrongdoing in order to keep its dangerous cars on the market and continue to profit while American lives were threatened.
Court secrecy endangers consumers and allows corporations to hide wrongdoing.
CLICK HERE to tell Congress to support the Sunshine in Litigation Act (S.2364 / H.R.4361) to keep corporations from hiding dangerous products and to motivate manufacturers to correct these hazards earlier instead of waiting until more deaths and injuries occur.
