The following statement can be attributed to Mike Fishman, President of 32BJ SEIU:
“New York City taxpayers expect their economic development dollars to go toward creating good jobs and a broadly shared prosperity. Making sure companies benefiting from taxpayer subsidies pay the same rates as their private-sector counterparts is simply fair policy.”
With more than 120,000 members, including 70,000 in New York, 32BJ is the largest private-sector union in the state.
