Fail: Alabama relief crew turned away from New Jersey because they are not union...

Gov. Chris Christie should quit helping Obama campaign and take care to prevent this kind of stupidity... 

Relief crews from Alabama who were specifically called to New Jersey found themselves diverted to Long Island, NY after they arrived because they use non-union labor. Alabama is a right-to-work state. 

WAFF-TV of Hunstville, AL reports:
 
Crews from Huntsville, as well as Decatur Utilities and Joe Wheeler out of Trinity headed up there this week, but Derrick Moore, one of the Decatur workers, said they were told by crews in New Jersey that they can't do any work there since they're not union employees....
Understandably, Moore said they're frustrated being told "thanks, but no thanks."
