IUOE Local 825

I’m honored to have the support of @IUOE825. Unions are vital to building New York’s infrastructure. Their members keep us moving forward. And I’m proud to continue partnering together for a New York that works for workers.

@tkwrpa @GatewayProgNews RPA thanks business and labor leaders for calling for Gateway funding: Jerry Keenan @allianceaction Santos Rodriguez @NYCBldgTrades Anna Marie Ramsey @IUOE825 John Napisa @ABetterNY

We are proud to be at the New Jersey state house for the launch of @climatejobsnj! Unionized workers are ready to bring good jobs and more affordable, homegrown energy to the Garden State.

The NJEDA Board approved a grant award of more than $1.2 million to @IUOE825 for the construction of a new training facility under the Apprenticeship Training Centers Construction Grant Program, bolstering workforce development opportunities in a crucial industry.

Thank you to the men & women of @IUOE825 who were out in force again today (the third weekend in a row!) knocking doors for us! We are winning this race! #Local825 #UnionStrong

This is a big win for the construction industry. @IUOE825 and @ELEC825 have too often seen foreign companies import their workforce despite having a better trained and qualified domestic workforce readily available.

Even in the heat of summer, the men and women of @iuoe825 are building our future. When completed, the Gateway Program will improve the lives of hundreds of thousands of New Jerseyans.

Week three of the Institute is off to a great start! Today, the Class ventured outside of SJ and visited the @IUOE825 Training Center where they learned about a variety of careers their students could have in organized labor. What a day!

Construction Opioid Awareness Week starts Monday. Here's @IUOE825 assisting with the opening message: 2025 Construction Opioid Awareness Week Message youtu.be/Zzma-dElGWo?si… via @YouTube @TAUCbuilt @NSCsafety @UBCJA_Official @LIUNA @NABTU @NYCBldgTrades @AGCofA

Our hearts go out to folks dealing with flooded roads, flooded basements, and worse. Know that the operating engineers of @iuoe825 are ready to make our communities safer and more resilient. All we need is the political will and funding to do it. #NJ #Infrastructure #BuildingOurFuture

IUOE Local 825 endorsed Jack Ciattarelli over Mikie Sherrill due to his support for natural gas projects, seen as vital for union jobs, and his pledge to reform the Board of Public Utilities to favor infrastructure work. Union leader Greg Lalevee criticized Sherrill's solar energy focus as impractical. Ciattarelli's immigration stance and Trump's union labor support also align with IUOE interests. However, Sherrill has strong union backing, like LIUNA, for her labor-friendly record and Gateway Tunnel funding. Her past ties to an anti-union group, though resolved, may have swayed IUOE. Both candidates have labor appeal, but IUOE prioritized economic and regulatory priorities.

"It’s disappointing that the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) didn’t move forward with life-saving offshore wind projects and the good local jobs, along with the improved air quality and climate benefits in New Jersey. Now to add insult to injury another state will likely get those benefits,” said Ed Potosnak, Executive Director, New Jersey LCV. tristateinfrastructurenews.com/environmental-…

This is a big deal: one of New Jersey's most politically influential labor unions, @IUOE825, has endorsed Republican Jack Ciattarelli for Governor. newjerseyglobe.com/governor/opera…

I want to thank @CityAndStateNY for the recognition—I'm truly honored. This acknowledgment is not mine alone. I'm fortunate to work alongside the incredible teams @ @ELEC825, @IUOE825 & @NY4energy cityandstateny.com/power-lists/20…

We produce the most reliable, affordable energy in the world under the strongest environmental standards. Affordable, reliable energy from 🇺🇸 oil and natural gas is not just an economic necessity — it’s also a matter of national security. chicagotribune.com/2025/06/10/opi…

The project is "essential to address persistent natural gas supply constraints in the Northeast, constraints that have led to higher energy costs for consumers and increased reliance on higher-emission fuels like fuel oil." mycentraljersey.com/story/news/loc…
