32:23-150. Criminal infiltration of air freight industry
The States of New York and New Jersey hereby find and declare that the movement of freight through the two states is vital to their economies and prosperity; that ever increasing amounts of such freight are being carried by the air freight industry; that said air freight industry in the two states constitutes an inseparable and integral unit of the commerce of the two states; that criminal and racketeer elements have infiltrated the air freight industry; that such criminal infiltration is threatening the growth of said air freight industry; that one of the means by which such criminal and racketeer elements infiltrate the air freight industry is by posing as labor relations consultants and that firms handling air freight are often forced to employ or engage such persons; that the air freight industry is suffering an alarming rise in the amount of pilferage and theft of air freight; and that it is imperative to the continued growth and economic well-being of the States of New York and New Jersey that every possible effective measure be taken to prevent the pilferage and theft of air freight and the criminal infiltration of the air freight industry.
