Rev. Jesse Jackson to rally for union workers

CAMDEN, N.J. - May 31, 2011

Jackson's tour will start with a picket-line rally in Philadelphia Tuesday morning, followed by a rally with New Jersey state employees in Camden's Walt Whitman Park.

The tour will continue Wednesday with a press conference in Jersey City and rallies in Newark and Trenton.

The state workers union is negotiating a new contract with Christie, and has accused him of negotiating in bad faith by sidestepping the union and trying to legislate cuts to workers' health benefits.
