Hundreds Benefit from Local 870 One-Day Conference
Over 650 members of Suffolk Educational Local 870 attended a one-day conference this past Saturday. CSEA President Danny Donohue attended along with Statewide Secretary Denise Berkley, Statewide Treasurer Bill Walsh, and Long Island Region President Nick LaMorte. There was a lot of energy in the room as members from the 61 units that make up Local 870 learned how to:
  • take advantage of CSEA member benefits;
  • help keep CSEA strong into the future;
  • take better care of themselves;
  • be prepared in an active shooter situation;
  • navigate the world of social media; and
  • prepare for retirement.
Take Advantage of CSEA Member Benefits
Local 870 members heard firsthand all the benefits that CSEA membership has to offer. These benefits include:
  • $10,000 accidental death benefit at no cost for members in good standing. Don’t forfeit this valuable benefit! Take a few minutes and submit this online beneficiary form.
  • Injury related legal representation and support including workers’ compensation, social security disability, personal injury, and veterans disability.
  • Savings on life, homeowner, auto, boat and motorcycle insurance.
  • Discounts on groceries, movies, restaurants, theme parks, sporting events and more.
Help Keep Our Union Strong
Conference attendees learned that anti-union groups will likely be urging members to quit our union. These corporate-backed Right to Work groups are spending millions on a nationwide campaign to deceive union members into thinking they’ll be better off if they quit our union. Don’t be fooled! Free riders weaken unions for everyone. Help keep our union strong! Call us at 518-257-1263 or email us if you’re contacted by any anti-union group, you want to learn more about how to keep our union strong, or you want a Never Quit presentation at your work site.
Thank you to all who attended the one-day conference. Stay union, stay strong!
