In Texas, state-level candidates and PACs have spent $2.1 million from their campaign accounts on services from the United States Postal Service in the 2022 election cycle so far. USPS received 0.4 percent of all $558.2 million in reported expenditures. 

And these numbers may tell only part of the story. The totals don’t include any political donations these men and women have given to candidates in federal races, such as the O’Rourke vs. Cruz battle. Moreover, these numbers don’t reflect any donations given to 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4) organizations. Courts have ruled that these groups do not have to divulge their donors in order to protect the donors’ rights to freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.

The Mostyns apparently realized that hurricanes don’t happen regularly, so they expanded their focus to a more frequent weather event – hail. Largely thanks to the Mostyn Law Firm, hail-damage related law suits against insurance companies and insurance adjusters have skyrocketed in recent years from 2% to 22% of all damage claims.
