fighting for working people
Proud members across NY
For more than 100 years, CSEA members have been fighting for working people through collective action–people working together–to get the job done.
These are no ordinary times. The middle class is suffering; wages are being cut, benefits denied and jobs privatized. There is a steady drumbeat of old, telling us that management dictates the rules of our work and we have no say in our conditions.
Union members know this is not true.
We know, we hold the power to turn it around through union organizing. We hold bargaining power that makes lasting changes in our lives and strengthens our communities. On the job, we’re passionate about the work we do. Whether we work for the state, local government, in the schools or the private sector, we’re proud to provide the services we all rely on every day to make our lives better.
Who We Are: Our Union
CSEA is one of New York’s largest worker unions, allowing workers the OPPORTUNITY to come together collectively to build POWER and improve our work and home lives. We are built on the foundation of strength in numbers.
Union membership is an investment in the future for you and your family. The dues you pay now come back to you in many ways, multiplied, now and in the future.
Union membership is also like a good insurance policy: We hope you’ll never need many of our protections, but you’ll be glad they’re there for you if and when you do.
CSEA is the largest affiliate union of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), which in turn is one of the largest affiliate unions of the international house of labor, the AFL-CIO.

“Now everyone knows that the labor movement did not diminish the strength of the nation but enlarged it by raising the living standards of millions, Labor miraculously created a market for industry and lifted the whole nation to undreamed-of levels of production. Those who today attack labor forget these simple truths, but history remembers them.”
