Day Three of the Transit Strike

The AP reports:

New York commuters began Day 3 without subways and buses Thursday, and union leaders faced a court date to explain why they shouldn't be held in criminal contempt for halting the city's mass transit system.

As legal and financial pressures mounted on the union, State Supreme Court Justice Theodore Jones ordered Transport Workers Union Local 100 President Roger Toussaint and his deputies to appear in court Thursday, warning jail time was a "distinct possibility."

The union leaders feel they are above the law.When you are so overpaid you begin to feel like that.
