I understand Michael will be there to testify and  delegates and shop stewards will be there (probably outside) as a show of support.

Any word on how the Council Meeting went ? I went on the NYC Council website and tried to play the video without any success.

Video worked for me. I can't embed it here because they don't give the embed code. Try again.

Michael has the floor at about the 52:30 mark.

Buzz,
What was the outcome of the hearing. The video does not work too well. I got through about 4 minutes.
The council member to the right of the speaker was texting. Not very professional or attentive. I guess we have to wait to see the minutes from the hearing and how it went.

I'm sure nothing was decided yesterday. They'll go to deBlasio with their findings and hopefully he'll take some action.
