De Blasio’s ‘Contract with America’ Leaks

“According to a draft of the document provided to The Daily Beast by someone asked to join the effort, de Blasio will call for a number of measures for which he has already pushed in New York City, including national paid sick leave and free, universal pre-kindergarten and afterschool programs.”

“The contract will also put de Blasio in the center of some of the debates currently roiling Washington. According to a draft of the document circulated this week, de Blasio will call for the passage of comprehensive immigration and for Democrats to ‘oppose trade deals that hand more power to corporations at the expense of American jobs, workers’ rights, and the environment.'”
