Why is my jQuery button handler not being fired?

Question

I have this jQuery to respond to a button being clicked and call a REST method:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(\"#btnGetData\").click(function() {

Your code works for me: http://codepen.io/danielvaughn/pen/jrNoko

Are you sure that you're properly importing jQuery? If not, run some jquery functions in your console to make sure it works.
