To Our NYSUT Sisters and Brothers:
We are pleased to endorse and offer our complete support for the ST Caucus Candidates for NYSUT Officers:
Mike Lillis –for NYSUT President
Bianca Tanis –for NYSUT Executive Vice President
Megan DeLaRosa –for NYSUT 1st Vice President
Nate Hathaway –for NYSUT Secretary Treasurer
During our service as NYSUT officers, Executive Committee members, Board members and local leaders we have each had the opportunity to work closely with these excellent leaders. Each has an unbending commitment to the union movement and to education unions at every level. They understand that NYSUT’s strength is embedded in inclusiveness, transparency and an unwavering loyalty to its members.
Through its long and powerful history, NYSUT’s strength has been in the ability of its officers to recognize the voices of members and local leaders, and to include those voices in decision making. NYSUT’s strength came from each officer maintaining a distinct and strategic role, providing a system of checks and balances among officers, and working together while respecting each other’s views. Mike, Bianca, Megan and Nate have demonstrated these skills at every level of their involvement and, when elected, are committed to returning these principles and values to NYSUT’s leadership.
In the current anti-union, anti-worker, anti-education environment, we must have real change that is built on resisting appeasement: Mike, Bianca, Megan and Nate represent that change!
Transformative leadership, not transactional politics, must be central to every decision: Mike, Bianca, Megan and Nate are that leadership!
The future of NYSUT depends on a voice that represents all its members standing stronger together: Mike, Bianca, Megan and Nate are that voice!
Mike, Bianca, Megan and Nate have the experience and character to lead NYSUT through the challenges ahead. They have our trust and respect, and we are confident they will earn yours. We strongly support and endorse the ST Caucus Slate for NYSUT Officers and urge you to do so as well!
In Solidarity,
Dick, Maria, Kathleen and Lee
