“32BJ congratulates Grace Meng on her election to Congress. New York and our country need more representatives like Grace who will work to invest in our nation’s infrastructure, create good jobs and pass immigration reform. Our members have been out in her district for weeks, canvassing fellow members and volunteering for her campaign. New Yorkers should be proud to have elected to Congress such a strong advocate for middle-class and working families.”
