Earlier today, Senate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr was interview by Channel 5 Reporter Amalia Barreda regarding a letter he sent today with 49 other legislators -- including the entire Senate Republican Caucus -- urging the Department of Corrections to file an appeal to the recent decision by the U.S. District Court in the case of Kosilek v. Spencer. In Tuesday’s decision, U.S. District Court Judge Mark Wolf ruled in favor of Michelle Kosilek, a convicted murderer serving a life sentence without parole, mandating the Department of Corrections to provide gender-reassignment surgery to Kosilek.
