Message from NJ State Legislative Director

Attention all SMART TD Members
***ACTION REQUIRED***
Do you know you are currently working without
injury protection, whistle-blower protection or
discrimination protection?
We urge you to call Governor Phil Murphy’s office at
(609-292-6000) and ask him WHY he & his
administration is pursuing the 11th amendment
AGAINST NJT’s Rail Employees. Let him know that
you are working without injury protection, whistle-
blower protection and discrimination protection.
Call SMART TD President John Previsich at
(216-228-9400).
And tell him that you are working without injury protection, whistle-blower protection or discrimination protection. He should consider this as a major dispute, also he should protest all F.T.A. Grants by New Jersey Transit until this matter is resolved

Our SMART TD brothers and sisters
in the Carolinas need your help!

Dear members of SMART Transportation Division:

Hurricane Florence and its resulting floods have left behind substantial destruction in North and South Carolina, leading to the loss of life and millions, if not billions, of dollars in damage to property in the Mid-Atlantic region and inland.

Some of those affected by the devastation include our Brothers and Sisters of SMART Transportation Division (SMART TD) who live in the region. This disaster adds a tremendous burden to their lives and the amount of loss that they now must cope with is unimaginable. The silver lining is, and will continue to be, the generosity of citizens around the country who are giving what they can to help those affected to help overcome the effects of this disaster and to reclaim their lives.

We are asking the SMART TD family to rise to the call and give what you can so that the daunting task of starting over and rebuilding can begin. Your generous donation will help lessen the struggle and bring real hope and relief to our SMART TD members who are suffering through this disaster.

Please make your donation to the SMART TD Disaster Relief Fund. All donations to the fund are used solely for the benefit of TD members who are impacted by natural disasters, and are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Contributions may be sent to:

SMART TD Disaster Relief Fund
Suite 340
24950 Country Club Blvd.
North Olmsted, OH 44070-5333

Sincerely,

John Previsich
President, SMART Transportation Division
