On 'Ask Governor Murphy,' the New Jersey governor weighed in on two ongoing union battles over equitable pay and union-busting efforts.
“Enough already. Let's get this resolved,” Murphy said on WNYC’s “” on Monday night. “This has been out there for a number of months. I've been involved with it personally. I'm not on the sidelines, in fact on the contrary.”
"We selected this location because here is where we have found some of the clearest evidence showing that Rutgers is handing over our union jobs to a private corporation,” Debbie White, a registered nurse and president of the Health Professionals and Allied Employees union, said during the rally, according to a press release. “Our members have identified recently hired non-union [Robert Wood Johnson Barnabas Health] employees doing jobs their union colleagues once did.
“We are collectively better than this. So God willing, the steps are being taken in the right direction,” he said. “I had been involved and I will stay involved.” The union said corrections officers, who are more than 80% white, received a 20% raise earlier this year. AFSCME which represents workers in veterans homes, psychiatric hospitals, and developmental centers, are more than 80% non-white and largely female.
