We promised $20 million for a Direct Support Professional living wage. We delivered $20 million for a Direct Support Professional living wage. #PromisesDelivered #SharedValues #NJDemocraticPriorities twitter.com/NJSenDems/stat…

Direct Support Professionals provide crucial assistance to people with physical and intellectual disabilities. They should be paid fairly for their hard work, which is why the Legislature’s budget gives them a much-needed-and well-deserved- raise. #FundingOurFuture #NJforEVERYONE

A #StrongerAndFairer NJ must include #PayFair4DirectCare – @GovMurphy please appropriate funding in FY2019 to raise wages for direct support professionals by $1.25 per hour. @NJDSPCoalition
