32BJ members led a successful campaign to raise standards for building service workers in the public sector. On January 12, 2006, Governor Codey signed a prevailing wage law, which establishes prevailing wages and benefits for workers in state-owned or leased buildings.
New Jersey members also use their collective strength in politics by voting for elected officials who support issues important to working families.
Through new organizing campaigns and a recent merger with the Philadelphia building services local, 32BJ is expanding into southern New Jersey, Philadelphia suburbs and the Delaware Valley.
