IN UNITY THERE IS STRENGTH

The recently announced 20 union bargaining coalition is clearly a “milestone for the municipal labor movement in New York.” All these unions have joined together to get their hands on the “largest budget surplus in [city] history.” With any luck, the rank and file of the UFT, and every other underpaid union worker in NYC, may make almost half of what a Unity DR makes.

It seems, though, that the NYPD, NYFD, and DC-37 have failed to sign on with NY’s Brightest and join the epoch making coalition. Instead the coalition has reached out to the following unions: Australian Dingo Trainers, the Peruvian Lama Excrement-Fuel Local, and the Serial Killers of Southern California (local: 25-life).

Clearly they do not know that the UFT President is co-chairing the coalition. Once they find out, we expect them to sign on immediately, if not sooner. You need a professional to help you get rid of job rights and protections that it took decades to secure.
