"I was quickly sickened after watching Governor Christie’s latest Hollywood video," said Eddie Donnelly, president of the New Jersey Firefighters Mutual Benevolent Association.
Donnelly said that pension contributions for firefighters rose from 8.5 percent to 10 percent under Christie’s first-term overhaul, and unlike the governor, firefighters can’t skip their payments.
"Our pension system does work," he said. "It is sustainable, and public safety personnel are not the cause of the current pension situation."
