ALBANY, NY (05/28/2010)(readMedia)-- "Today's decision is a victory for the rule of law in New York and should make it clear that no governor can run roughshod over people's rights. Gov. David Paterson cannot disregard his responsibility to all the people of New York to ensure services and responsible government. CSEA can only hope that the Governor will recognize that his incompetent and arrogant approach to New York's budget crisis has been entirely counterproductive.CSEA members are working harder every day under increasingly difficult working conditions. We have offered numerous ideas to help address the crisis which have been contemptuously dismissed by the Paterson Administration.It is time for Governor Paterson to stop scapegoating public employees, work to bring people together and develop a comprehensive approach to the overall budget problem that will be in the best interest of all New Yorkers."
