Sure, if it's done properly, but adding two, three or, say, five more spots to a port authority board that are going to be picked by different levels of government doesn't open up public accountability, because the board of directors answers to nobody. However, if we had somebody from my union, or my friend's union, or the ILA sitting on those port authority boards, we are the public. We will be drilled by the public. That will bring public accountability back. People who sit in their ivory towers and come to a meeting once a month is not public accountability.
