Hoffa errand boy and Teamsters Local 707 President and Suffolk County Legislator has rejoiced that COVID has disenfranchised most Nassau OTB employees.
Since the Teamsters have done nothing for us there is no value in paying dues. The last election that Kevin lost was thugged up by the Hoffa Gang
The us Supreme Court decision in Janus now allows us to cut our losses
If you were in our position you too might do the same?
Kevin mccaffrey is also a bigot having told me that he would do nothing to see that Nassau oTB does not violate the rights of bettors secured by ny const art 1 sec 3
If you were interested in Nassau oTB employees at all you would come to speak with them
The teamsters always have been and continue to be a thug outfit

Stop scratching on holidays
Published: June 1, 2012
Off Track Betting in New York State has been racing into a crisis called shrinking revenue. Some people have spitballed a solution: Don’t close on holidays.
New York State Racing Law bars racing on Christmas, Easter and Palm Sunday, and the state has ruled OTBs can’t handle action on those days, even though they could easily broadcast races from out of state.
“You should be able to bet whenever you want,” said Jackson Leeds, a Nassau OTB employee who makes an occasional bet. He added some irrefutable logic: “How is the business going to make money if you’re not open to take people’s bets?”
Elias Tsekerides, president of the Federation of Hellenic Societies of Greater New York, said OTB is open on Greek Orthodox Easter and Palm Sunday.
“I don’t want discrimination,” Tsekerides said. “They close for the Catholics, but open for the Greek Orthodox? It’s either open for all or not open.”
OTB officials have said they lose millions by closing on Palm Sunday alone, with tracks such as Gulfstream, Santa Anita, Turf Paradise and Hawthorne running.
One option: OTBs could just stay open and face the consequences. New York City OTB did just that back in 2003. The handle was about $1.5 million – and OTB was fined $5,000.
Easy money.
