Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) Occupational Safety and Health Committee Chairman Jim McHugh, waving left, at a state worker protest in St. Paul, Minnesota, in support of striking public employees in that state. McHugh attended the protest, fresh off a state transportation emergency stint at Ground Zero in New York City, after Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura called the striking state workers there "unAmerican" in the wake of the World Trade Center attack. McHugh told the cheering crowd of AFSCME brothers and sisters that everyone working at Ground Zero was a union member. The CSEA is New York State's largest union.
