Here's another ...Bill Thompson is running for Mayor
PRESS
01.06.13, Bill Thompson for Mayor Campaign
Statement by William C. Thompson, Jr. on School Bus Contract Negotiations
"A school bus strike can be avoided but the Mayor and the Department of Education must come to the table looking for solutions and not just headlines. By rebidding contracts that include job protections the City can save taxpayers' money, maintain the jobs of experienced drivers and minimize any disruption to school schedules. The City should not be holding our school children hostage to its political agenda. Parents need the safety and security for their school children that experienced workers provide."
He's got my vote!!!!!!
