NJ Transit strike looms as engineers demand pay hike

New Jersey commuters could face major disruptions as NJ Transit engineers threaten to strike if a deal isn’t reached by March 20. The union representing engineers is demanding a 14% pay hike, citing pay disparities compared to LIRR and Metro-North. NJ Transit’s new leader, Kris Kolluri, says a 4% raise is more reasonable, aligning with agreements from 14 of 15 other unions. With tensions rising, both sides have limited time to negotiate. Fox 5’s Teresa Priolo reports on the potential strike and its impact on riders.
