October 25, 2023 —<\/em> This year\u2019s convention brought together some of the most influential and powerful leaders in the labor movement. From the labor houses of AFT, SEIU and the AFL-CIO, PEF delegates were given insight and inspiration as the fight continues to make New York state a better place for all workers. Each of the speakers offered not only their support and solidarity, but a reminder of why PEF fights.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Randi Weingarten: Better Together is more important than ever<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On the first full day of convention, President Spence welcomed an all-star lineup of labor leaders to address the delegation. AFT President Randi Weingarten kicked things off.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOne thing that I know, is that in the absence of having PEF, this state would be in much worse shape. In the absence of PEF, our members would be in much worse shape,\u201d Weingarten said. \u201cJust think about some of the states right now who don\u2019t have unions.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Weingarten praised the ability of unions like PEF to be able to disagree, but in the end come together when it is most necessary.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to beg this convention to use the freedom that you have, the voice that you have, to create the democracy that you want,\u201d Weingarten said. \u201cBut not just the democracy, the movement that you want, to create what we need to do to make jobs in New York State!\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While support for unions and labor movements across the country is on the rise, Weingarten points out that there are still active smear campaigns against her and other leaders in the movement, as well as the movement as a whole.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do they do that? Why do they smear? Because they don\u2019t want a labor movement. They want us to be divided, they want us to be at each other\u2019s throats,\u201d she said. \u201cThey don\u2019t want what we\u2019re trying to do. And what are we trying to do? You see it! As part of your convention: Better Together!\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Weingarten asked PEF members to stay as positive as possible as they continue to fight for better working conditions and fair contracts. As the country divides itself on many things, Weingarten said, union strength and solidarity is more important than ever.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou are members of two amazing international unions. But we are at the center of this race between hope and fear. Fear normally wins. Division normally wins,\u201d Weingarten said. \u201cLook at what just happened in Israel and in Palestine. Look at what is happening in Ukraine. But hope and aspiration are what America is about. It\u2019s about making sure that the next generation does better than we do.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mary Kay Henry: Solidarity across diverse backgrounds is our strength\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Service
SEIU President Mary Kay Henry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

President Spence then welcomed the leader of PEF\u2019s other parent union, Service Employees International Union (SEIU), President Mary Kay Henry to the convention stage.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The leader of more than 2 million SEIU members reminded delegates that despite their varying backgrounds and differences as Americans, the power of unions is rooted in diversity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe owe the strength of our union, the breadth of our vision for the future and the energy and richness of our movement for justice to the incredible diversity, tradition, experience and culture that we bring,\u201d she said. \u201cOur power comes from this amazing cross-racial intergenerational solidarity that we can only build inside our unions.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Henry praised PEF members for continuing to advocate for criminal justice reform in the state. Led by President Spence, some members are involved in an SEIU initiative called \u201cCriminal Justice and Us,\u201d which looks at criminal justice reform in New York state through a racial justice lens.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLooking ahead to this legislative session, PEF members will be advocating for common sense solutions that allow workers in the criminal justice system to both ensure public safety and to help people who were formerly incarcerated lead productive lives,\u201d Henry said.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Henry believes that, with PEF members leading the charge, this project could become a national model for other states in the country.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s give it up for Gabby Franklyn, Dr. Wanda Bates, Rob Hodson, Diane Jaulus, Sharon Lamb and Catherine Adams,\u201d Henry said, mentioning the PEF leaders who are part of the initiative. \u201cThis is no joke in trying to take leadership in this area, and we want to work with you every step of the way.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Henry also thanked PEF members for their hard work helping each other out in times of need, referencing the terrible Buffalo storm that threatened the lives of many members last December. That work, Henry said, not only helped to inspire hope for members and workers in New York, but also across the country.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe join your call for adequate funding for public services. For wages and working conditions, that attract and retain staff. For fully resourced state services. And for a secure pension that every state worker deserves,\u201d Henry said. \u201cSimply put: Respect us! Protect us! Pay us!\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRespect us! Protect us! Pay us!\u201d is an SEIU rallying cry that started in California, when fast food workers were organizing their \u201cFight for $15\u201d campaign. Henry shared that those workers were inspired by PEF\u2019s actions, and over the past five years have finally been able to negotiate an increase in pay and improve their working conditions.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to imagine with me now the way Randi was envisioning the expansion of worker power in the United States of America,\u201d Henry said. \u201cWhere we take the amazing public support, that 10% of workers who are lucky enough to have collective bargaining in our union, and throw open the doors of our movement and welcome people in so that we can build the multi-racial power necessary to finally challenge the corporate power hold on our democracy and economy and end and uproot systemic racism once and for all.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mario Cilento: Make the most of PEF<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"New
New York State AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As PEF works to fight back against bullying and hostile work environments, President Spence recalled the help he received from New York State AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento. Cilento got on the phone with the governor as soon as he heard PEF was leading the charge to help organize a meeting with the governor\u2019s office.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In his remarks, Cilento thanked President Spence for putting PEF in the forefront on much of the state\u2019s initiatives in the labor movement, which benefit all 2.5 million AFL-CIO members in New York. Cilento also asked delegates to remember why they are part of the movement.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cClose to 24% of workers in this state are organized, so basically 1 out of every 4 workers in this state is a union member, right? That\u2019s twice the national average. One out of every seven union members in the country comes from the state of New York,\u201d Cilento said. \u201cAs proud of those numbers as we should be, those numbers, in and of themselves, are useless, and meaningless, and they\u2019re worthless unless everybody is working off of the same page, everybody is working off the same playbook and everybody is coordinating.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unions support other unions, Cilento said, which means that when construction unions need help, PEF, the AFL-CIO, AFT and more all show up.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c(President Spence) comes to those meetings and on behalf of everybody here, PEF supports that issue or initiative and the rest of the labor movement, who has no real stake in that particular issue, supports them so they can get that legislation passed,\u201d Cilento said. \u201cThe same way that private sector unions come through the state AFL-CIO to help us get pension reform.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The track record of success when unions work together, Cilento said, is very high. He shared with delegates that a few private sector unions supported recent changes to Tier 6, $25 million in funding for the Department of Labor, and climate legislation that protects public sector work from going private.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cilento promised that the New York State AFL-CIO will continue to have the backs of PEF members to make sure that state workers and PEF members are protected and fully supported.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to know that your two and a half million brothers and sisters and family members of the New York State AFL-CIO, will never, ever, stand by and let PEF members or any other members of any unions be treated with less than full dignity and respect by any state agency in the state of New York,\u201d he said to cheers. \u201cBecause that\u2019s not who we are, and we will never allow that!\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
