NEWARK, NJ – SEIU 32BJ is proud to endorse Congressman Rob Menendez’s re-election campaign to serve in Congress. Rep. Menendez has demonstrated a strong commitment to 32BJ members and working families all over New Jersey. The Congressman stood with members during the union’s historic commercial cleaners contract campaign and continues to fight alongside members for higher wages and benefits at Newark, JFK, and LaGuardia Airports.
“Throughout his time as a Congressman, Robert Menendez has been a champion for workers’ rights and a true ally of labor,” said 32BJ SEIU NJ State Director Ana Maria Hill. “Whether he was standing with our commercial cleaners as they negotiated their first post-pandemic contract or fighting with the union to improve working conditions at Newark Airport, Menendez has long since proven he will always back working New Jerseyans. We are confident that he will continue to build worker power in Congress. 32BJ is proud to endorse this champion of working New Jerseyans.”
“I am honored to be supported by the dedicated members of SEIU 32BJ and I am excited to continue our work together,” said Congressman Rob Menendez. “We’ve stood side-by-side at rallies in Jersey City and Newark, and we’re going to keep collaborating as we work to strengthen the right to organize, fight for better conditions, and ensure that every union member is able to earn a living wage.”
