Hundreds of union members crowded the road and walkways at New Jersey's Statehouse to protest Gov. Chris Christie's funding reductions to public pensions.
There is some concern among state worker union members that they could face public backlash if the Christie administration is ordered to make a hefty payment to the public worker pension system.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said he would take "more extreme measures" to contain escalating public worker retirement costs if Democrats who control the Legislature refuse to negotiate additional pension changes.
