This is a great day for the entire union movement in NYS. 1199 is setting a standard throughout this country in organizing new members and keeping us #UnionStrong. It is an important moment for 1199 and for the future of organized labor.
CDPAP caregivers across New York are voting to join the 1199 family, gaining the support, advocacy, and collective power that make the union difference. Read more about the historic moment by @nytimes here: digital.1199seiu.org/nytcdpa…
