Association of Managerial Employees in the Connecticut State Service (AMECSS)

Lifting Up Managerial and Exempt Employees

Our state federation's ongoing efforts to empower a greater share of the public sector workforce with a voice on the job continue surging ahead. A week-long membership mobilization drive drew union leaders and activists from across the state — and the nation — this fall to AFT Connecticut's Rocky Hill headquarters. "ConnectiBlitz 2019" brought more than 60 managerial and exempt state employees into our labor family while at the same time strengthening one of our newest local affiliates.
 

Mobilizing to Defend Public Services and the Workforce that Delivers Them

An effective response to painful austerity policies being pushed by the Trump Administration and in statehouses across the country was the focus of AFT's annual public employees' professional issues conference. The consensus among attendees was clear; unprecedented attacks demand fully engaging current members and organizing more working people into our movement. For our accomplishments on this front, union leaders from Connecticut were recognized in particular for successful efforts over this past year.
