Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) members wearing "Quality Workers Providing Quality Care" t-shirts at a "speakout" against New York State Governor Pataki's proposed budget cuts to the Office of Mental Health (OMH). CSEA bombarded the public and state lawmakers with information about the proposed plan to close two state-run psychiatric centers and thousands of CSEA members lobbied lawmakers, made phone calls and rallied to save vital mental health services. The CSEA is New York State's largest union.
