Midday News: NYC Teachers Union Expands Childcare Site, St. Patrick’s Cathedral Unveils Immigrant Mural, and New Jersey Governor’s Race Tightens

from NYC NOW · host Mike Hayes

New York City’s teachers union is expanding access to its childcare “matchmaker” website, now open to all families after launching last year for members only. Meanwhile, a new mural at St. Patrick’s Cathedral honors generations of immigrants as church leaders clash over rhetoric on immigration. And in New Jersey, Democrat Mikie Sherrill and Republican Jack Ciattarelli enter the final stretch of a close governor’s race, with urban turnout likely to play a key role. WNYC’s Mike Hayes reports.
