The Westchester County Association has scheduled a forum with county Legislators Mike Kaplowitz and Virginia Perez and has dubbed them the “Hottest Legislative Duo” because of their decision to break ranks with the Democrats over the 2013 county budget.
The legislators joined with seven Republicans to build a temporary majority to pass a budget that compromised on issues such as 
child care but preserved priorities of County Executive Rob Astorino, including not using fund balance or raising the tax levy.
Before the budget, Kaplowitz, D-Somers, had already stopped caucusing with the Democrats on the board but Perez, D-Yonkers, has been steering clear since the budget season.

Yeah sure. Two traitors to the ideals of the Democratic party are now being honored by the millionaires and Big Business bosses who hate poor people, and who also hate real Democrats who believe in giving working poor a chance to better themselves.
