Proud to endorse Secretary- Treasurer @NYSUTStreasurer for reelection. He is tireless in working for our members and our union.

One of the many reasons we endorse NYSUT EVP @JCiffone … she is simply an amazing advocate for public education and for our members.

[NYSUT Unity Caucus @Unity_Today]

So excited to endorse some amazing union leaders at this year’s RA!!

Our incumbent officers- President Melinda Person, Executive VP Jaime Ciffone, Second VP Ron Gross and Secretary Treasurer Philippe Abraham have worked tirelessly for our members and have achieved so much.

Our next speaker is our very own President: @MelindaJPerson!

What do public service workers get?

It’s not stock options. It’s not hedge funds or corporate buyouts. They get a pension and that pension should be equitable for ALL public service workers. #FixTier6

We need more educators in Congress. That’s why we’re proud to support @MannionforNY for #NY22.

Summer may be here, but our members are still hard at work. We’re currently attending the @NYSUTMHRO Leadership Conference in Saratoga Springs put on by @nysut. It’s a great learning experience for all! @Unity_Today

I wrapped up the day w/ members of the Smith Point Lifeguard Association and the NYS Lifeguard Corps at the @NYSUTSRO @nysut Lifeguard Summit. Big topic of the evening was the lifeguard shortage, retention, training and recruitment. Thank you #LongIsland for an outstanding day!
