I think most of the City Council has noticed that the UFT (and probably DC37) phone banks are not what they used to be. Sure, they'd like the cash - but maybe they will stand up to the threat - especially since they know how effectively retirees have been mobilizing.

Every city council person probably hears from their staff every day - 150 constituent calls today, 137 of them were retirees who don't want Aetna...

I wonder what the real numbers are.

Arthur, FIRST thing to do after replacing Mulgrew is to change UFT charter to no longer allow delegate system. . . . and to change the charter of the MLC to no longer allow weighted voting. No more loyalty oaths and no more crony-ized patronage jobs paid for by active and retirees bubble priced dues. No more COPE!
