Even a Democratic discovers how quickly they can be reminded of what their place in life is, if they choose to cross the public employee unions.
Governor Cuomo was blasted today in full page ads in the Times Union, courtesy of smokeeaters opposing Cuomo's plan to limit pay awards in certain instances of binding arbitration.
The Governor's plan applies to distressed cities and limits raises to 2%. Fire unions call that a "radical" plan and have put the Democratic governor on notice, he has crossed the line.
Any changes to New York's pro-union labor laws meets with a quick rebuke that usually puts the pols back in line.

I take exception to your characterization that NY laws are pro-union. The half of us that hate the unions would not hate them if it were not for the one sided laws that favor them. The laws are in effect what hinders unions and ruins their reputations.
