Across New York state, Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) members are showing up wherever the Governor appears to protest and confront him about his threat to lay off 8,700 state employees. Union members are also holding rallies and demonstrations in front of the offices of legislative leaders who are backing the governor's plan. More than 200 Union members rally outside the Gideon Putnam Hotel in Saratoga Springs while Governor Paterson attended a political conference. Members delivered the Governor a message via signs and chants, "No layoffs, can you hear us now."
