Having a union and the right to bargain
collectively with your employer is not an old-fashioned idea. Top
executives of every major corporation negotiate their own
compensation, retirement and severance packages with the companies
for which they work.
One page in a contract is worth a thousand promises.

Success !
The US
House voted Aug 10, 2010 to follow the US Senate who had voted Aug 4, 2010 to extend $26 Billion in state
aid (FMAP funding) to retain teachers, firefighters, police, and many hundreds of
thousands of municipal workers -- who were about to lose their jobs thanks to state budget
shortfalls

New York will receive $2 billion in FMAP funding and over $600
million in additional educational aid. This money was absolutely
critical in order for the state
and local governments to keep employees working and maintain vital
public services. The education funding will allow
school districts to retain employees who may have otherwise been
laid off.

The Westchester Board of Legislators
Meeting is Sept 7, 2010
If you are concerned about your career, if your family's well being
is of concern, if you worry about your ability to pay bills and the
upcoming college tuition for your child, if you worry about the work
you provide for the citizens of Westchester, then you should also
plan to attend the Sept 7, 2010 Legislators meeting in White Plains
and show that concern and worry.
As of August 15,
2010 435 Westchester employees have filed for retirement in
2010.
Contact the union office if any of those employees are rehired as
consultants.
Participation by Westchester County in the NYS

Comment from
one of our CSEA member co-workers:
I have been paying property taxes since
1976. My taxes go up every year (they tell you that at the
assessor’s office).
My Fire District, Town and school taxes are all higher than the
county tax.
My school taxes are 3 times the amount of my county tax. I have no
children in school.
My county tax for 2010 was 4.5% higher than my county tax for 2009.
That’s $56.00 or approximately $1.00 per week.
I cringe at the thought of someone (including myself) being laid off
so I can save a dollar a week.
I am sure people with more property pay more but I doubt I make
anything close to what they make.
I just wanted to add my 2 cents. Thank you. |

What
it means to have a union; a perspective from the West coast of the
US:
To be a union member is to be a "caretaker of a great
inheritance," .... "We're lucky we've had people come
before us who built something out of nothing. We're watching over
what someone else built and keeping it strong so we can pass it on
to our kids." "When 100 people are pulling on
that rope, it's easier than with 10 people." Story

President Obama
and Vice President Biden were the original cosponsors of the
bill and the administration has made a public commitment to
making union organizing easier and rebuilding the middle
class.
"We're ready to play offense
for organized labor. It's time we had a president who didn't
choke saying the word 'union.' A president who strengthens
our unions by letting them do what they do best: organize
our workers," President Obama told the
AFL-CIO in Philadelphia on April 2, 2008.
"I will make it the law of the
land when I'm President of the United States,"
he said. |
