Ciattarelli is Wrong for NJ Workers

Jack Ciattarelli has consistently been on the wrong side of New Jersey workers over his entire career in public office. 

From votes against increasing the minimum wage, including a constitutional amendment, to opposition to equal pay legislation, a prevailing wage law, and “Buy American” requirements for public contracts, Ciattarelli has shown his true colors – and we can’t trust him. [A-15, 5/26/16; ACR168/SCR1, 2/14/13; A-2650, 3/15/12; A-964, 12/3/15; S-1811, 12/18/14; S-2425, 2/14/13]

And in 2013, Ciattarelli voted to oppose Project Labor Agreements that create jobs for construction workers in the building trade unions [S-2425, 2/14/13]. That vote wasn’t just symbolic—it was a direct attack on the wages, benefits, and job security of thousands of skilled New Jersey tradespeople who rely on PLAs to ensure fair hiring, union standards, and safe working conditions.

The choice we have in November could not be clearer. We stand with Mikie Sherrill. She has a 100% AFL-CIO lifetime voting record and a proven track record of standing with New Jersey’s workers. Mikie Sherrill has fought for us in Washington, and the New Jersey State AFL-CIO is proud to strongly endorse her for Governor.
