FILE- In this March 6, 2014 file photo, New York Archbishop, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, left, and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, talk with pupils of a pre-kindergarten class at the Catherine Corry Academy in the Saint Francis of Assisi School in New York. The mayor wants to see universal pre-k established in New York City and he is adamant that funding should come from increased taxes on the city’s wealthy residents. If he succeeds in bringing universal pre-k to New York City but the funding comes from a different source, it will be hard for de Blasio to claim it as a victory.

New York Archbishop, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, left and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, center, interact with pre-kindergarten pupils at the Catherine Corry Academy in the Saint Francis of Assisi School, Thursday, March 6, 2014 in New York. Dolan said that the 1,700 new pre-k seats that de Blasio is proposing would be found between the Archdiocese of New York and the Archdiocese of Brooklyn and children of all faiths would be admitted. Dolan stopped short of endorsing de Blasio's plan to fund the program by raising taxes on wealthy New Yorkers. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has proposed finding money in the state budget instead. The tax hike needs the support of Albany. (AP Photo/New York Times, Todd Heisler, Pool)
