On Labor Day Christie Extols Hard Work, Resilience

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie today released the following statement marking Labor Day this year in New Jersey and reflecting on the progress that has been made over the past 3 years to improve the lives and opportunities available to working New Jerseyans:

"As families across our state get a much-deserved break today this Labor Day, I'm reminded of what an honor it is to be governor of a state and people who so fully embody the principles we celebrate on this day - hard work, resilience, looking out for each other, and hope in a better future. For the last four years, we have worked to meet that standard, turn our economy around, and give our hardworking families the relief and opportunities they need and deserve.

"Today, our economy is growing. We've created 143,000 private sector jobs, and we've made New Jersey more competitive by cutting taxes and making smart investments in our infrastructure - like our roads, ports, and higher education institutions. We still have more work to do, but I am proud of what we have accomplished together and of the incredible job the men and women of our state have done in building our state and helping in its recovery. And I am extremely proud of the broad support that has resulted from those partnerships, with support from twenty-six labor and building trades organizations and leaders of our small business community alike. This Labor Day, Mary Pat and I and wish everyone in New Jersey a safe, happy, and much-deserved holiday."

Governor Christie has steadily earned an unprecedented level of support from labor and building trades up and down the state receiving a total of twenty-six endorsements including: Operating Engineers Local 825, Statewide Pipe Trades, Plumbers Local 24, Steamfitters Local 475, Pipefitters Local 274, Sprinkler Fitters 696, Elevator Constructors 1, United Association International (UA International), Statewide Operative Plasters' and Cement Masons (OPCMIA), OPCMIA 8, OPCMIA 29, OPCMIA 592, IBEW 102, IBEW 164, IBEW 1158, Hudson County Building Trades Council, Laborers Internation Union of North America (LIUNA), LIUNA 172, LIUNA 472, LIUNA 77, LIUNA 3, LIUNA 78, LIUNA 55, LIUNA 305, LIUNA 1412, LIUNA 108.
