Another union is backing Mark Levine for Manhattan borough president — many of whom call the candidate the voice for workers.
The latest coalition to root for Levine is the Hotel Trades Council (HTC), and Rich Maroko, the union’s president, said that the City Council member has been there for labor groups both during the best and worst of times.
“Mark Levine has an outstanding record of supporting labor through good times and bad. As a council member, Mark has been a staunch defender of New York City’s essential workers, including last year when he pushed forward a bill to provide job security for hospitality workers when their hotels are sold. Mark’s leadership and experience are exactly what we need in the office of the Manhattan Borough President and we are honored to endorse him,” Maroko said.
