Bloomberg campaign stops using third-party NJ company that hired prison workersMichael Bloomberg’s campaign, through a New Jersey-based third-party vendor, contracted Oklahoma prisoners to make calls on the presidential candidate's behalf, The Intercept reported on Tuesday.

ProCom was a subcontractor for one of the Bloomberg campaign’s vendors. The campaign has since ended its relationship with both companies, it said in a statement. “Earlier today, a news outlet reported that prison workers were being used by a subcontractor to make telephone calls on behalf of my campaign,” Bloomberg said in a statement. “We do not support this practice and we are making sure our vendors more properly vet their subcontractors moving forward.” Read more: www.northjersey.com/story/news/new-jersey/2019/12/24/bloomberg-campaign-hired-prison-workers-through-third-party-nj-company/2744171001/
