The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic is wrecking the City’s budget. They said they had a deficit of $29 million, and they proposed to fix that problem the same way they always do: cutting services to the public and laying us off. According to the Mayor, “everything is on the table,” which means we’re on the chopping block.

Working in partnership with other unions, including Local 21, the police, and the firefighters, we closed their budget gap from $29 million to under $6 million, completely without service cuts, furloughs, or layoffs.
