Education advocates, including the United Federation of Teacher’s Michael Mulgrew, have signed on in support of Governor David Paterson’s plan to allow wine sales in grocery stores. The letter–which doesn’t mention Paterson by name–will be sent to lawmakers shortly, I’m told.
A Siena poll last week found that New Yorkers supported the plan, 58 to 39 percent, making it one of Paterson’s most (only?) popular proposals.
