Yesterday the US Supreme Court took another shot at weakening unions and depriving workers of their rights to be heard, and adequately protected, in the workplace.

Coming off of 8 years of attacks by Governor Christie this attempt by those that hate everything labor unions stand for does not scare us, and it will not dissuade us from doing what we do every single day, protecting our members.

On Thursday, June 21, the New Jersey State Senate voted 37-1 to concur with the Governor’s conditional veto of our “pension carve out bill.” The New Jersey General Assembly, with a vote of 75-1, took the same action yesterday. This means that our bill is now back on the Governor’s office for his signature. This will take place in the coming weeks and the legislation we all worked so hard on, to protect our pension investments and retirement security, will be law!
