Unemployment Benefits for Striking Workers After 2 Weeks

A message from President Tom Benedetto

Governor Cuomo signed the bill S4573 into law granting unemploymentbenefits to striking workers after 2 weeks. This is a big step for all current striking workers and future and is a testament to the great things we can accomplish when we all work together. As one of the big unions that went on strike exactly 1 day before UI benefits would have kicked in, we know how important this bill really is.
