Antonio Godinho, an official with the Residential Carpenters Local 119 in Edison, hands out fliers in front of Clearview Cinemas on White Street Saturday objecting to what he says is the hiring of out-of-state carpenters by Clearview on a project in Hoboken.
The leafletting effort was replicated at the movie chain’s venues elsewhere in New Jersey, he said. In a statement, Beth Simpson, a spokeswoman for Clearview, which is owned by Cablevision Systems, said the general contractor for the Hoboken project “equally considers both union and non-union subcontractors.”
In the background are John Sorensen and Curtis Corral of Carpenters Local 2250 in Red Bank.
