Say No To Cuomo Rally

Today members of the SCTA gathered along with thousands of other local unions, activists, parents and students to SAY NO TO CUOMO.  Governor Andrew Cuomo was attending a Democratic Committee event as an "honored" guest and speaker. The rally was spirited and a great show of solidarity and togetherness in our fight for public education.  

MCEA 2014 Annual Convention

The Maryland Classified Employee Association held their annual convention in Ocean City, MD on October 13-15, 2014. This year's theme was "Reclaiming the Promise of Quality Public Services for Strong Communities."

Speakers included AFT Secretary-Treasurer Lorretta Johnson, AFT- Maryland President Marietta English, AFL-CIO MD/DC President Fred Mason among others. Speakers emphasized the need to turn out to vote and to vote specifically for candidates that would support state workers.
