CSEA Metropolitan Region President Lester Crockett, second from right, joined CSEA New York Metropolitan Retirees Local President Roslyn Taylor, far right, and local members in expressing their strong solidarity with New York State Nurses Association on strike at Mount Sinai. Our union recently showed up on the picket line to support their fight for safe staffing levels, fair working conditions, and quality patient care. Their presence sent a clear message: when health care workers stand up for their rights and their patients, the labor movement stands with them. (Photo by David Galarza.)
