LIUNA Demands Justice for Unpaid Workers

Workers from LIUNA Local Three are back on the picket line in Jersey City, demanding justice from subcontractor AJD after years of unpaid wages—some workers say they’re owed hundreds of thousands of dollars. This isn’t the first time AJD has faced accusations, and the union is fed up with exploitation. Protesters gathered near a massive AJD-owned skyscraper, backed by city council members who declared Jersey City a labor town where workers deserve fair pay and safe conditions. The fight extends beyond AJD—Concrete Rising is accused of owing over $700,000 to 200+ workers, and even Kushner Companies are under fire for unpaid wages on major projects. The union is pushing for project labor agreements and stronger contract language to protect local workers, refusing to back down as new city leadership pledges labor support. This isn’t just about back pay—it’s about securing good jobs, benefits, and respect for the people building the city. LIUNA Local Three is standing firm: justice won’t wait.
