Why ‘Like us on Facebook’ is important using the social media for several purposes. There’s the main CSEA page, a member benefits page, a page for President Danny Donohue, and a page for each CSEA region. Several CSEA locals and units also have pages, which are updated regularly by union members. Pages are often created as part of a community or contract campaign. acebook is a wonderful medium for organizations like labor unions to share ideas and spread the word out about why belonging is important. In the case of labor unions, it’s a free vehicle to let our voice be heard about how union members earn more, have better benefits, have pensions and have better security and safety on the job than non-union members. CSEA has a wide presence on Facebook, The more we “like,” the broader our audience becomes as other Facebook users who are curious about why you have liked something check it out. In the culture of Facebook, a “like” has a dual purpose. It not only tells the other user that you actually like the item, but it is used as an acknowledgement. It is okay to like a post that is about something terrible. People understand that in that case, it means you are acknowledging and are in support of the post’s purpose. Sharing is important, too. The more we share posts about pension protection, adequately funding Social Security, worker safety and health issues, and secure retirements, the better we can educate others. Advocacy on Facebook is only as strong as the action on Facebook. More likes makes CSEA more relevant. As social media grows, the people who make decisions that affect your jobs and working conditions take notice of organizations with large followings. It’s a two-way conversation, and the larger our base, the greater our reach. Likewise, the greater our reach, the easier it is for us to build relationships with allies who can help us in our fights — strong communities work. Our ability to communicate with an audience of our peers grows, and so does our strength.
