Laborers’ International Union of North America Endorses
Amy Kennedy for Congress

Brigantine, NJ — Today, the Laborers’ International Union of North America announced their endorsement of Amy Kennedy, candidate for New Jersey’s second Congressional district. 

LIUNA is a powerhouse of a half-million workers who are united through collective bargaining agreements which help them earn family-supporting pay, good benefits and the opportunity for advancement and better lives. LiUNA members work across industries including construction, energy, infrastructure and over 70,000 public employees from health care and sanitation to road maintenance and emergency response. 

“I’m honored to have the support of the LiUNA. They are an integral part of our communities across the country and represent so many hard working families of South Jersey,” said Amy Kennedy. “In Congress, I will fight tirelessly to protect the hard-earned benefits of workers, and advocate every day for the protections they need to safely perform their critical duties.”

“In these challenging times, it is imperative that workers have a fighter representing them in Congress. Throughout this crisis, working men and women have been asked to bear the brunt of the economic toll and health risks of COVID-19,” said Raymond M. Pocino, Vice President and Eastern Regional Manager of Laborers’ International Union of North America. 

“We proudly endorse Amy Kennedy. She has a proven record of advocacy and she will fight to create new jobs and protect the ones we have.  Amy will always take the side of workers over special interests. We need more people like Amy Kennedy in Congress.”
