Stuart Appelbaum, President of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union: “We are delighted that the IDC and the Democratic Conference are coming together to create a Democratic governing majority. The conference leaders, State Senator Jeff Klein and State Senator Andrea Stewart-Cousins, have shown great leadership in making this happen; and we thank Governor Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio for the roles they played in facilitating this agreement. Now it is time for all Democrats to work together for a progressive agenda for the people of New York. This new Democratic coalition creates the opportunity for more good things to be done in the state of New York.”
