Happy Labor Day?

Sep 2, 2022 Stephen Krauchick

#Bridgeport CT-- For the last two years, the Bridgeport Fire Department has been serving the community without a contract and Bridgeport Police for over a year. As a citizen, do you find this satisfactory? I ran into council members Ernie Newton and Jorge Cruz, Sr. to get some insight into the delays. I couldn't get any details on the specifics like what is an unrealistic contract but I'm certain the two-year delay is working in their favor as this year's high inflation will enter the negotiations.
