Manville – Joe Lukac, Manville Councilman and Republican candidate for Assembly in the 16th Legislative District received the NJAFL-CIO’s endorsement yesterday, making him one of three Republicans in legislative races statewide to receive their support this year.

“I have always fought for the middle-class, working families of New Jersey, it’s why I got involved in politics in the first place,” said Lukac, a 27 year member of the IBEW. “I am proud to have received this endorsement, I will stand up for worker’s rights and strive to make sure New Jersey is a place where good union jobs will continue to help our communities thrive.”
