I would like to congratulate the employees of Ascend Montclair Dispensary who have chosen to take the step forward as a union represented and protected shop. While I have been a champion for the need to legalize cannabis in New Jersey, I have never lost sight that the jobs created by this new industry should be safeguarded with enhanced workplace protections. This is why my legislation added strong labor protections into the cannabis laws we passed. I wish Cannabis Engineer Extractors & Distributors Union (CEED) Local 420 continued success in their organizing efforts, and I will stand with them as I have always stood with the women and men of the Garden State’s Organized labor movement.
—New Jersey State Senate President Nicholas Scutari
