NY State was worried about opening the constitutional convention and giving hedge fund managers and other greedy monied people access to tearing up decades of solid labor-supporiting rules, such as Triborogh and collective bargaining.
This is great news: In the national fight against labor, NY remains firm.
Woo Hooo, Labor!!!

(5,164 posts)Im relieved to hear that. I just got home and Im watching the mostly great results tonight. I voted today and I was in such a hurry I forgot to vote against the cc and I was so upset. I also convinced a few of my students who werent going to vote to vote and I let them leave early if they wanted to so they could vote.
