CSEA AND PEF FIGHTING FURLOUGHS WITH RALLY ON MONDAY, MAY 10

CSEA AND PEF JOINING FORCES

Rochester, N.Y.--  At noon, on Monday, May 10, CSEA members throughout the State will join our PEF brothers and sisters in a series of statewide "Fight The Furlough" rallies to protest the Governor's illegal furlough proposal and to highlight his inability to effectively govern.  The Governor has proposed state workers take a mandatory one day a week off without pay until the budget is passed.  As of today, New Yorkers have been without a state budget for 36 days.

In the Western Region, union members will join together outside the Rochester Psychiactric Center at 1111, Elmwood Ave., the Ellicott Square Building in Buffalo and the DOT Office Building on Broadway in Hornell for a show of solidarity and strength.

Flo Tripi, WNY Region 6 President and Bess Watts, Monroe County Local 828 President urge all members to attend or send an electronic message to the Governor's blog to express your outrage, Staight Talk, Straight Answers.

Here is the flyer for the rally.
