Correspondent. Bloomberg Law. "Hi, I'm in Delaware."

Bloomberg Law podcast host June Grasso really likes Clydesdales, too - I spoke with her about how the Delaware Chancery courts handle not only cases involving billionaires like Elon Musk and Fortune 500 companies, but also the case of a construction worker trying to get the remains of his beloved horse returned to him.

The same people who for decades built Bloomberg INDG into the success it is are now, in retirement and needing health benefits to recover from cancer and strokes, being told the company wants to slash those benefits to save money. The Guild at Bloomberg INDG is fighting to keep those retiree benefits!

Here’s what the company is proposing:

-Cutting retiree benefits
To say this proposal is tone deaf to the hard work of our members over the past three years would be an understatement.
