Lavan & Short Pick Up Endorsement Of NJ AFL-CIO
Former Hazlet Mayor Kevin Lavan and former Middletown Committeeman Patrick Short, Candidates for the NJ State Assembly for the 13th Legislative district, each picked up a key endorsement from the NJ AFL-CIO labor union today at the unions endorsement conference. Over at Blue Jersey, CWA NJ Area Director Hetty Rosenstein is quoted as stating, "Public workers and their many allies in the private sector stood together today to endorse those who stood with us this year and to deny endorsement to those who attacked collective bargaining. The majority of Democrats in NJ believe in and defend collective bargaining. They deserve a labor endorsement. A minority do not. That group should not get a labor endorsement.", in reference to all those that earned the labor endorsement.
