Federal Worker's Rally in EHC


EGG HARBOR CITY — In response to the month-long federal government shutdown which has furloughed more than 800,000 workers across the nation, the New Jersey State AFL-CIO is holding a rally Monday.
U.S. Senator Bob Menedez and U.S. Rep. Donald Norcross, D-1st, are expected to speak at the rally. Supporters will gather at the Teamsters Local 331 building in Egg Harbor City at 11 a.m.

 More than 5,000 federal workers in New Jersey are either on furlough or working without pay during the government shutdown

 Locally, enlistees and civilian employees of the U.S. Coast Guard have been the most effected by the shutdown, having yet to receive a paycheck in 2019.
