District Council 37, the city’s largest municipal union, sued Mayor Eric Adams and his administration Wednesday over his recent 5% reductions to city agency budgets.
In the suit, which was filed in New York County (Manhattan) Supreme Court on Dec. 12, DC37 accuses the administration of not following the proper procedure in planning to cut around 2,300 Job Training Participant (JTP) positions represented by the union and replace them with privately-contracted workers.
