After losing the election for County Executive for the first time in around 30 years, the Monroe County Republican Party is unwilling to accept the vote and give up the single-party rule that defined the County Government for that time. They've introduced the CABLE Act to drastically reduce the authority of the County Executive seat that tens of thousands of residents of Monroe County just voted to change.

The Rochester Labor Council, AFL-CIO, rejects this undemocratic power grab. We stand by the basic tenets of democracy and fair elections. We will not stand by while the Republican party tries to negate the outcome of a free and fair election!

Please join us in telling the Monroe County Republican leadership that they must respect the outcome of the election and stop this obviously corrupt and anti-democratic effort to negate the change in leadership.
