Everyday, 1199SEIU members are continuing to build on our historic growth in New York by uniting and organizing healthcare and home care workers across the state.
1199SEIU opened the doors to their new Central New York location in downtown Syracuse on January 25, and welcomed hundreds of Delegates, community allies, local elected officials, and employers to view the new space and enjoy musical entertainment, drinks, and appetizers from various downtown eateries.
In Buffalo, NY, hundreds of faith, labor, and community members rallied on December 10 in Niagara Square before marching to three locations that they say symbolize the ongoing assault that workers are under in New York State and nationwide.
