We hope that you will become and stay actively involved in the legislative and
governmental processes that shape the law. The President, the Governor, and
several members of Congress in Washington have launched a series of assaults on the
rights of injured persons. Several bills are pending in Washington and in
Boston which would prevent
accident victims and victims of professional negligence from recovering fair compensation
for their damages. Business interests have called for virtual
bans on medical malpractice, products liability, and other kinds of cases.
Your voice needs to be heard! As a public service, we offer you the
following E-mail addresses and other addresses for the Governor, the State House, and key Congressional leaders. We urge you to write them frequently.
