To the Editor:
The Taylor Law was extended even though it was ready to expire. It gave the Nassau County Police Department the ability to get huge wage and benefit increases when the county executive said he has no money. The county leaders say they don’t like it, but it enables them to blame the law for huge increases and keep the union happy while votes and Political Action Committee money roll in.
This is a “special interest.” The public funds the unions without recourse. Did any elected official say anything about the recent vote and its effect on the taxpayer? The Legislature hears no evil.
