Keep on truckin': An overhaul of New York’s port rules would bring vital jobs to the state
by Representative Jerrold Nadler and Andrea Batista Schlesinger
New York Daily News, Thursday, January 22^nd, 2009

If we reverse years of dangerous deregulation, thousands of new low-paying jobs could quickly become sustainable middle-class jobs.
