Several subsequent news reports say that the above was incorrect, that help
is not being refused because of lack of union membership.


NJ Gov. Christie just stated the same thing during a press conference.


What same thing, the report or that the reports were incorrect?


False reports of crews being turned away because union affiliation.

His has to power to put a stop to this, if it was happening. He said
as much.



I hosed that sentence, huh

So was it and did he?


The governor said that under the authority of NJ law (Disaster) he

His point was that reports were false.
