Meet Sue Newman

Employed over 8 years by the Monroe County Department of Motor Vehicles, Sue is currently the section president for the Monroe County Clerk’s Office and 2nd Vice President for Unit 7400. She represents the Voice for the Members Slate as a candidate for the office of Secretary.

She has put the 4½ years of her active union involvement to good use. Sue has participated in steward training, contract negotiations, FMLA workshops, grievance committee work, workplace violence and union counselor trainings. Sue is presently on the Monroe County Workplace Violence Committee as well as the Unit 7400 negotiations team.

Married with one son, Sue is extensively involved at leadership levels with the Boy Scouts of America and carries that code of honor and fairness into the workplace. Lorry Wisse, a City of Rochester Library Clerk and CSEA officer, says "I've know Susan for a very long time. She is honest, hard working and one of the most detailed-oriented people I've ever met. She would make a terrific officer for the Local."

Sue understands that workers have a responsibility to our employers but she adds, "We also deserve fair working conditions and decent pay.”
