"I believe that those Senators who oppose Justice LaSalle and have attacked some members of the Court of Appeals as being "too conservative" have either been misled, do not apprehend the jurisdiction of the New York Court of Appeals, or don't ascribe to the fundamental foundation of our separation of powers that limits the arbitrary excesses of government and compels the need for an independent judiciary."

The Grieving Families Act isn't being opposed by hospitals, insurance carriers, and other interests because they are mustache-twirling supervillains trying to kill the poor.
