PBA PRESIDENT REACTS TO
UNITED FEDERATION OF TEACHERS
CONTRACT
PBA president Patrick J. Lynch said: “Individual
unions are obligated to negotiate with the city to satisfy the
unique wage and health needs of their members. The PBA
is seeking to reach a level of pay for New York City police officers
that is comparable to that of other police departments in the
metropolitan area as prescribed by the Taylor Law. Until
the city offers a plan to bring our members to a competitive
level of pay, the PBA will use every avenue available to reach
that goal.”
