Statement on the New Jersey budget from CWA NJ Legislative and Political Director Seth Hahn:

“The last time New Jersey required the very wealthiest among us to pay the slightest bit more was in 2004.  Now, 14 years later, the Democratic Legislature is refusing to ask people making ten times that amount to pay any more, all while telling us that is the progressive thing to do.  We are outraged that our members are going to be locked out of work for the second year in a row because the Legislature wishes to protect millionaires.”
