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. CSEA and PEF members and staff demonstrate outside the New York State Court of Appeals May 1 during a Law Day event Governor David Paterson attended. Demonstrators marched around the building chanting phrases such as "cut the waste, not the workers."
