The head of Atlantic City's main casino workers union is
backing a proposed state takeover of the resort's finances and assets.
Bob McDevitt, president of Local 54 of the Unite-HERE
union, says Atlantic City can no longer afford to lurch from one crisis to the
next.
He says instead of rejecting help from the state, the
city should accept it.
His stance clashes with that of some local officials, who
want to fight the proposed takeover.
The plan would give the state vast authority over most
major decisions in Atlantic City, including the right to sell off city-owned
assets and land.
