\n Mayor Bill de Blasio just folded like a cheap beach chair \u2014 twice in two days, flinching first on his vow to lay off 22,000 city workers, then on his promise to open schools on Sept. 10.<\/p>\n

For weeks, the mayor stuck by his deadline, despite threats and fierce criticism from labor groups: \u201cUnions will .\u2009.\u2009. say things sometimes in a very dramatic fashion,\u201d he said. But \u201cthe mission is to take care of our kids.\u201d That drew rare praise from us \u2014 and, no doubt, thousands of parents eager to have their kids back in class.<\/p>\n

But, with the United Federation of Teachers on the verge of a strike vote, and the usually quiet principals\u2019 union also firing harsh shots, Hizzoner blinked \u2014 announcing a deal with the unions to delay classroom openings to Sept. 21.<\/p>\n

UFT boss Mike Mulgrew, who\u2019d been huffing about \u201ca major war,\u201d then called the negotiations \u201can example of how to get things done.\u201d Yeah \u2014 for him.<\/p>\n

The shift left parents who\u2019d planned for their kids to begin at least hybrid learning next week scrambling. It also left everyone wondering why, with months of relatively few COVID infections, the mayor couldn\u2019t have worked out a deal earlier \u2014 if he was going to cave in anyway in the end.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, many schools the mayor doesn\u2019t run are opening on time \u2014 with some Catholic schools even managing full-time in-person instruction.<\/p>\n

De Blasio\u2019s schools flip follows by a day his retreat on sending pink slips to 22,000 workers. He\u2019ll now give lawmakers more time to let him borrow billions.<\/p>\n

Layoffs are always difficult, but it would still leave the city with thousands more workers than when de Blasio took office. Private-sector workers, meanwhile, have seen both layoffs and pay cuts amid the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Borrowing should be a last resort. As the Citizens Budget Commission\u2019s Maria Doulis suggests, the city could dodge new debt or layoffs by just getting its workers to kick in a few bucks a month for health-care costs.<\/p>\n

But this mayor is constitutionally unable to stand up to the municipal unions to protect the larger public. A profile in courage, he\u2019s not.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
