Letitia ‘Tish’ James made a special guest visit to the July Local 100 Executive Board meeting and she was rewarded with a unanimous endorsement for her bid to become the next New York State Attorney General.
The vote was 37-0 to endorse Ms. James, who is currently the New York City Public Advocate. Local 100 President Tony Utano said that the endorsement was “an easy choice, as the unanimous vote of the Board indicates. Tish James has been there for transit families and all of New York’s working families her entire political career. She has an impeccable record of service to our City and she will make a great Attorney General.”
