Abstract

On May 8, 2007, New York Governor Eliot Spitzer issued Executive Order No. 12, opening the door for the unionization of 60,000 persons paid directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by state funds, to provide home-based day-care for the children of working parents.

The Governor's action was dramatic, stark, and extraordinarily significant.

Keywords: Child Day-care
