NYC transit union chief resigns following sexual misconduct claims
Briefly

Richard Davis, president of NYC's Transport Workers Union Local 100, resigned abruptly amid allegations of sexual misconduct. The resignation follows more than two years of leadership and comes as Davis cited health concerns. However, TWU Local 100 officials suggest deeper issues, stating that Davis was suspended after claims surfaced and internal charges were filed. Following Davis's departure, John V. Chiarello will manage the union's operations temporarily, while emphasizing a commitment to restore member confidence and continue the union's legacy, especially after a recent contract was negotiated with the MTA.
Davis was suspended after TWU International learned of the sexual misconduct claims and subsequently filed internal charges against him.
His resignation took effect immediately as the leadership aims to restore confidence and uphold the legacy of Local 100.
