In a prior comment, a candidate for mayor claims "there is nothing illegal" about his stated plan to get the school committee and teachers union to negotiate a new contract, despite the fact that the two parties are currently exercising their legal rights through arbitration and litigation, the existing legal avenues for settling their current contract dispute.
He should also be aware, since it has been explained to him before, that municipal officials are legally prohibited from getting involved in school contract negotiations under nearly a century of law and legal precedent in Rhode Island.
Please join me and the thousands of voters in Warwick who will reject this candidate on Nov. 8.
