June 2, 2003
The Senate proposal regarding asbestos litigation is looking to bring the 20 years of asbestos litigation under better control. With the current situation, asbestos victims are not receiving fair compensation for his/her suffering, and many asbestos victims have died from deadly asbestos related illnesses, like mesothelioma before recovering damages. USG is one company in particular that has been named in asbestos and mesothelioma liability suits.
The company manufactured joint treatment compound in the 1960s and early 1970s that contained asbestos. According to USG more than 300,000 asbestos claims were tried or settled in the last 25 years and $20 billion has been paid out to asbestos claimants. A deadly, carcinogenic substance, asbestos is linked to mesothelioma, asbestosis, as well as many other effects.
