Unions Rule---Gov. Martinez Unhappy With 11th-Hour Deal (NM-Richardson sweetheart union deal on last day)

Former Gov. Bill Richardson signed a contract with a child care workers union on his last day in office that the new administration says could cost taxpayers a half-million dollars.

The contract covers an estimated 2,600 child care workers under contract with the state Children, Youth and Families Department to provide home care for the children of low-income parents. It sets up an arbitration and grievance process for child care providers who take state payments and establishes a system in which dues are deducted from paychecks and sent directly to their union.

Martinez's staff contends the contract will require CYFD to hire at least three new staff members and may require computer modifications that cost up to $500,000 to allow the union to collect dues from the independent child care workers.
