Summary
Property service workers in Jersey City, unionized under 32BJ SEIU, staged a powerful rally outside Kushner Real Estate’s HQ demanding fair wages, healthcare, and dignity after 18 months of stalled contract talks. These essential staff—concierges, porters, and maintenance crews at luxury buildings like 485 Marin Boulevard—are earning as little as $20/hour, struggling to afford food and healthcare for their families. With nearly 400 residential workers across the city pushing for union rights, local officials joined the protest, urging Kushner to bargain in good faith. The union is calling for family-sustaining pay, benefits, and protections—while Kushner remains silent. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
