Dear Editor:
The Republican majority of Morris County’s Board of Commissioners very reasonably voted to endorse State Senator Joe Pennacchio’s re-election effort because Senator Pennacchio has done a creditable job for his constituents in Morris County.
On the other hand, in many people’s opinion, Tom Mastrangelo has done a lousy job as Commissioner. Mastrangelo was front and center at the three Parsippany Town Council meetings, where he loudly and enthusiastically endorsed the adoption of Union-sponsored Project Labor Agreement regulations recently passed by a 4-1 vote for all Municipal construction contracts over $5 million.
Much of the public was against such a move, but with the help of Mastrangelo’s loud voice, and the PLA was passed. My main point is that PLA’s and Union support is usually endorsed by Democratic politicians. Mastrangelo professes to be a strong Republican and Conservative, but when it is time to stand up for Republican and Conservative values, Mastrangelo laid down on the job.
