I can never get past the fact that Michael Mulgrew during the last contract negotiations had $450 million to give paraprofessionals meaningful and pensionable increases that keeps up with the costs of inflation and he did nothing !

Everything else is now performative, and he has put paraprofessionals in the midst of a political and legal Maelstrom that could play out for months to come.

" The Taylor Law requires that all raises to government workers in New York must be collectively bargained as part of a labor contract -- not created by local legislation. "

From the moment I heard of this ridiculous legislation I asked why wasn't this happening at the negotiating table?!? It's because this is a Mumgrew / Unity shell game!

So curious as to what exactly 4 installments of 2500 after being taxed is realistically supposed to do for us. We work in an unaffordable city that is full of lies, greed, and corruption. Either double our yearly or please stop acting like this one time thing is saving people because it is not.
