More Pressure for Charters In Harlem

WNYC's Beth Fertig looks at the bumper-to-bumper traffic of potential new charter schools that is backed up on both the Henry Hudson Parkway and the Harlem River Drive because the Assembly (according to Sheldon Silver) wants to mandate unionization at all new charter schools, even if teachers at those schools don't want it. Beth looks at the issue through the lens of the Central Harlem Inter-Agency Program.
