Thank you for covering the successful effort by state senator Andrew McDonald (D-Stamford, Darien) to bail out the Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder law firm through a special legislative fix in Hartford (Aug. 11). McDonald, who co-chairs the judiciary committee and is himself a trial lawyer, has been one of the biggest obstacles to medical liability reform in Connecticut. According to former state Democratic party chair George Jepsen, McDonald is a rising star of his party and will one day be governor. -- Leonard Ferrucci, New Canaan, Conn.
