Calling the plan to privatize Montgomery County’s Department of Liquor Control (DLC) “a solution to a problem that doesn't exist,” UFCW 1994/MCGEO president Gino Renne testified against the proposal Friday at the County Council. Privatizing the DLC “will create huge problems for the whole county government,” Renne said, noting that “the DLC is an enormous contributor” to county budgets, “generating $30-40 million in funds for the general government. So not only does this move to privatize threaten the DLC's workforce, it could have an impact on” other county workers as well.
