Harsh Truths with Norman Seabrook

On this episode, Norman follows up on his conversation with Bruce Blakeman and digs deeper into what he says is at stake for New York’s blue-collar and municipal workers. He sounds off on pension tiers, contract negotiations, pattern bargaining, sick time, congestion pricing, subway violence, public safety, sales taxes, housing, and the failures of Albany leadership. Norm argues that police, fire, sanitation, correction, teachers, and working families cannot keep being used as the meal on the table, and says New Yorkers need to stand up, speak out, and fight to level the playing field.
