The Board of Delegates of the 31,000 member New Jersey State PBA unanimously voted to endorse the following candidates for United States Senate and House of Representatives.

The PBA endorsements were based on a number of factors including candidate voting record and bill sponsorship in the current and prior Congress, candidate work with the State PBA on matters of critical importance in DC and personal communication and proven commitment to support law enforcement officers as an elected official.

The Board of Delegates will consider further endorsements in the remaining Districts at their September meeting.
