Brodsky Releases Rice/Donovan Letters Opposing Rockefeller Drug Law Reform

White Plains – Having received no response to a letter sent to Ms. Rice regarding her position on Rockefeller drug law reform, Mr. Brodsky today issued the following statement:

“I wrote to Ms. Rice in order to make sure that we could have a fair and candid discussion about the issues that are important to the people of New York, particularly reform of the Rockefeller drug laws.  I will continue to raise the issue.  Given Ms. Rice’s decision not to respond to our letter, it seems useful to release the letters sent by her and Staten Island District Attorney Donovan.  They clearly set forth in somewhat inflammatory language, their opposition to reforming the antiquated Rockefeller drug law.  I look forward to further discussing our position as we continue to meet with the people.”
