What members are saying about our union’s member benefits:
Linda Bryant, Westchester Retirees Local 921 President Testimonial for MetLife Legal Plan
“ I saved thousands of dollars with my MetLife Legal Plan available with our CSEA membership. I feel good knowing that when it’s my time, my estate is in order, wishes will be followed and my loved ones won’t have to ”go through the probate process, which can be very costly.
“My son needed to purchase a new vehicle and banks were offering ridiculously high interest rates. We contacted Broadview and they gave him a significantly lower rate on a brand-new car. Our union
is about more than saving a job. My experience with using the endorsed vendors that have been vetted by CSEA is that I dr”ive home the value that we receive by choosing to be union members.
