The DC 37 Delegates Council voted July 9 to back Bill Mulrow for state comptroller. As a reform candidate and the son of union workers, financier Mr. Mulrow won strong support from the delegates after extensive discussion and debate.

"Bill Mulrow has shown a commitment to the concerns of working people, including our fight against privatization," said Executive Director Lillian Roberts.

The delegates also voted Aug. 14 to thrust the union's political muscle in the Sept. 10 primary behind Dennis Mehiel for lieutenant governor, Eliot Spitzer for re-election as attorney general, and many members of the U.S. Congress, state Assembly and Senate.
