“I'm raising my glass today to toast the true
backbone of New York, our extraordinary
CSEA family, to our 200,000 dedicated state,
county and municipal workers who don't
just keep our state running. You're really
the unsung heroes who show up every
day, sometimes doing double time without
recognition. From plowing our roads in the
winter to ensuring clean drinking water, your
service never wavers. My 30 years in public office has taught me one
thing. I have worked with you closely in many of my positions, and I
have never taken you for granted, and I never will. We appreciate and
celebrate you every single day.”
— Gov. Kathy Hochul
“I want to extend my deep appreciation to you,
the CSEA members who work tirelessly every
single day to keep New York running strong. I
always say that public service is a calling, and
CSEA members answer the call every single day.
Your dedication to the health, safety, and well-
being of New Yorkers and their communities
touches countless lives. On behalf of 1.4 million
members across the country, I'm proud to raise
this toast to you. Cheers!”
— Lee Saunders, AFSCME International President
“Your commitment to excellence and to serving
the people of our state is essential in maintaining
public trust in government and helps keep New
York moving forward. From Long Island to
Western New York, CSEA members represent
the best of our local communities and continue
to deliver services that New Yorkers depend on.
Here's a well-deserved toast to each and every
one of you. Thank you for your outstanding public
service. Let me offer a special word of gratitude to our valued CSEA
colleagues here at the State Comptroller's Office. CSEA, your work is
valued and appreciated.”
— NYS Comptroller Tom DiNapoli

tirelessly to provide public services in
every community across New York. Your
dedication and hard work does not go
unnoticed, and to honor your contributions,
I am proud to designate May as Member
Appreciation Month once again. New
Yorkers across the state rely on your
services, and you consistently deliver.
Whether you work for the state, local
government, a school district, or in the private sector, your work is
crucial. You are an essential part of the fabric of our communities,
whether performing everyday tasks or responding to crises.”
