Dr. King stood with unions & workers, giving his life while fighting for dignity on the job.

“The labor movement was the principal force that transformed misery & despair into hope and progress.”

His legacy lives on every time we organize and stand together.

This settlement proves what we said for years: the SHBP needs real reform now. Under @mikiesherrill.bsky.social lawmakers must demand transparency & accountability from insurers. NJ workers &taxpayers deserve nothing less.
