A message from Central Region President Ken Greenleaf

“Moving Forward Together”

The labor movement and working people have been, and always will be, under attack from groups like the Freedom Foundation and the anti-union goals set forth in ‘Project 2025’. We’ve boldly taken on each challenge from those trying to hold labor back and consistently proven that together we can make a difference when we’re moving forward together.

Despite the attacks, our numbers continue to grow. Public approval of labor unions continues to remain high. And our power has never been greater because members know that we are listening and fighting for them every day.

We have plenty of tools in our toolbox to keep growing and moving forward together. Take advantage of our Education and Training Department. Union knowledge builds union power. There are a variety of both in-person an virtual classes that all members are welcome to take. From becoming a steward or grievance representative to improving your public speaking or bolstering your labor history knowledge, these classes help create new activists and future leaders.

Vote. It doesn’t get any simpler than that. We can make positive change and move forward together when we put labor-friendly candidates in positions of power. From local elections to the presidential election, our vote is our voice and CSEA and the labor movement will never be silenced.

I am honored to be part of the leadership of CSEA and I will continue to work hard every day to help uplift our members, our great organization, and our communities. 

In Solidarity,
