NYS auto inspections resumed on the 5th and Cuomo suspended them for another month the day after. The order has some kind of "we swear this time's for real no backsies" at the end of it.

Too late, Cuomo! I'm getting it inspected today.

they usually dont put drug dogs in stations because they generally have the bomb dog team there already and people dont know you never teach a bomb dog to find drugs (or else the handlers blow themselves up thinking they found white powder but oops it was black!) so the presence of any dog makes people think they are doing drug control anyway.

It's really bleak that 40% cuts leads to a 0.88 billion reduction on a 12 billion shortfall, aka it's not gonna loving work.

MTA is pushing this to every ny publication to ring the alarms again after they finalized their budget yesterday https://new.mta.info/document/24121 extremely grim poo poo. its as bad as they were warning it would be in august and theyre begging the state/fed for money while union leadership promises slowdowns and strikes if they go through with the 10,000 layoffs.

quote:

“There will be a fightback from the unions, and it will be a collective fightback both on the railroads and within the city, I just want to make that clear,” said John Samuelsen, president of Transit Workers Union Local 100. “If there’s any expectation from anybody in this room, whether they be board members or whether it be the bosses at the MTA, we’re not going to open up our contracts and bankroll this deficit reduction. It’s not going to happen.”

Of all the strikes that have been discussed as a result of proposed austerity, this is the one that seems most possible and most likely to achieve its goals. Do you have any links to union leaderships statements regarding slowdowns and striking? I'm a part of the progressive caucus of DC37 and I'd be interested in presenting this to comrades to see how we might support them.

No, this is great -- thank you! We have some connection to the TWU through a series of Public Sector BLM panel conversations over the summer, can tap into those and see how we can support.

It's funnier than that, which is why they're getting dunked on by almost every reply: not only is this their basic job which they barely do, cops and their protégés are the biggest violators.

nyc food market in the Bronx that handles about 60% of the produce supply for the city is on strike bc management refused to raise wages by even a dollar (counter-offered 30 something cents lol). if you're in the area check in with the teamsters union or DSA or whatever local organizers that are joining the effort, there's lot of ways to offer support and solidarity! here's the JC16 Twitter acct if you want to get caught up on their activity
