Union Says Bloomberg's Cuts are 'Dirty'
By Azi Paybarah
The service-workers union SEIU 32BJ is going to run this ad against Michael Bloomberg's proposed cuts to school aid, calling it “a dirty way to trim the budget.”
It’s set to run in The Chief, a weekly paper that focuses on local unions.
A spokesman for the union said members will also travel to Albany tomorrow to urge state lawmakers to increase aid to schools as well.
