Enough is enough.

That is the message from New York State AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento who penned a letter to the Cuomo administration and the Empire State Development Corporation on August 14th, urging the approval of the New York Cosmos’ stadium bid in Elmont, New York.

“I respectfully request you act as swiftly as possible in approving this project and by doing so, assure the local community and the team itself that New York is committed to the Cosmos,”Cilento wrote to Empire State Development Corporation President, Howard Zemsky.

The letter, provided to POLITICO New York, features Cilento telling Zemsky he speaks “On behalf of 2.5 million working men and women in New York State, and in solidarity with the Long Island Federation of Labor” on the stadium issue, which is nearing it’s three year anniversary this November.

The New York Cosmos submitted for bid a redevelopment package in 2013 which includes a privately financed $400 million project with a 25,000 seat stadium at the heart of the dilapidated Elmont community. Aside from the stadium, the Cosmos plan offers the building of a hotel, a restaurant row, park land for the community and several other capital improvements with the goal of creating a year-round destination between them and the adjacent Belmont Raceway.

Citing the “explosion” of interest in soccer, Cilento urges the ESDC to make a “timely decision” on the matter, preserving “thousands of permanent jobs” for local residents.

This push, of course, follows reports of the Cosmos’ waning hope for the bid approval. The club has publicly stated it has begun to look at development in New York City, Westchester and New Jersey.

Whether Cilento can push the argument further remains to be seen.
