Queens District Attorney Melida Katz’s coalition of organized labor support continues to grow with the endorsements of 32BJ SEIU and the NY/NJ Hotel and Gaming Trades Council announced on Feb. 8.
With more than 175,000 members, 32BJ is the largest union of property service workers in the country, while the HTC represents 40,000 non-managerial hospitality and gaming employees.
After announcing the new endorsements, Katz sent an email to her supporters accusing her Democratic challenger George Grasso of going on the attack, “not just against me, but against the New York State Court Officers Association,” she wrote.
