CWA Makes Endorsements For June Primary
Today, the Communications Workers of America (CWA) enthusiastically announced endorsements for several 2021 races throughout New Jersey.
“CWA is proud to endorse this stellar group of pro-union candidates, ” said Fran Ehret, CWA NJ State Director, “After the year we’ve all been through, now more than ever, we need leaders at all levels – from our towns to legislative districts to the county level and all the way up to the Governor’s Office – who fight for the issues that matter to working families.”
“CWA is ecstatic to stand behind and alongside these candidates,” said Dennis Trainor, Vice President for CWA District 1. “We know these men and women have our backs, and they’ll fight for New Jersey’s middle-class and working families. The incumbents have been there for CWA members through the years as effective leaders. And we know the challengers will help uplift working people, too.”
The Communications Workers of America (AFL-CIO) represents both private sector and public workers. CWA represents more than 70,000 working families in New Jersey, including over 40,000 state workers, 15,000 county and municipal workers, and thousands of workers in the telecommunications, airlines, healthcare and direct care industries.
Election Day is Tuesday, June 8th (Except for Collingswood, which is next Tuesday, May 11th).
