    Unions rip WTC health registry By MAGGIE HABERMAN
    Leaders of several major city unions are blasting the Bloomberg administration's World Trade Center health registry as a waste of money that won't help their sick members.

    'I'm requesting that the information on the registry be taken off our [union] Web site,' said Lee Clarke, health and safety officer for District Council 37, thecity's largest municipal union,which has offices a block from Ground Zero.

    'My members did not sign up to be a guinea pig or a statistic, and that's exactly what the intent of this is,' Clarke said of the $20 million study.
