Cuomo called for unionized labor in proposed Indian-owned gambling casinos in Buffalo and Niagara Falls. "There should be a guarantee that unions can organize at the new casinos.
With the current deal, there are no guarantees and that raises serious questions." Under the tentative pact, the state would allow slot machines in the casinos in return for up to 25 percent of the revenue from them.
