Members of CSEA Statewide LGBTQ+ Committee and CSEA Statewide Secretary Richard Bebo were on hand for the recent Pride Night at the Plaza event held at Albany’s Empire State Plaza. Our union was a sponsor of the event, which included performances by Amanda Tori Meating and Jasmine Kennedie from RuPaul’s Drag Race, as well as local performers. State Office of General Services staff coordinated the event, which raised money for Capital Region nonprofit organizations providing assistance to the LGBTQ+ community.
