"So again, I am thrilled to be joined by members of Laborers' Local 472 to celebrate this historic victory for New Jersey's commuters, families, and everyone who relies on our state's infrastructure.

"Mike, I want to thank you, personally, for your leadership on this. In a few moments, I'll walk over and have the honor of signing a piece of legislation that I think will create thousands of good paying jobs for our fine Union workers, like so many standing here and sitting with us today."
