You may have seen coverage on Rnews earlier, but Metro Justice was one of many organizations to head to Albany and protest the coup d’etat.  Originally, they were heading to Albany to  lobby for Clean Money, Clean Elections.   As Florida resident Tom Golisano’s role in this becomes clearer, I pulled this quote from the Rnews report.

“Tom Golisano talks about reform,” said Metro Justice’s Phil Schaefer. “Well, one person’s reform is another person’s power grab. And we think the power should be in the hands of ordinary people like us, and not in the monied interests like Tom Golisano.

Well, when Metro Justice got there, they were part of this protest sit-in.  I think the best part starts at the 2:10 minute mark.
