Good food, great company, and a shared commitment to protecting public education!

CSEA members have been putting their pens to work this October! Faculty participated in two postcard-writing parties hosted at the Central OEA/NEA office, joining educators in a statewide effort to encourage fellow OEA members to vote in Ohio's November election.

Several CSEA members attended the first gathering earlier in the month, while six members, joined by a spouse, participated in the second event. Both evenings offered opportunities to enjoy food, connect with fellow educators, and take part in an important effort to support candidates who value public education and collective bargaining rights.

One of the most important races for Ohio educators this November is the governor's race. The Ohio Education Association has endorsed Dr. Amy Acton, who supports public education and the rights of educators to organize and advocate for their profession. Her opponent, Vivek Ramaswamy, has expressed opposition to public-sector unions, making the outcome especially significant for Ohio's teachers and faculty.

Beyond the postcards, these gatherings are a wonderful reminder that union involvement is also about building relationships, enjoying time together, and working toward shared goals.

CSEA is proud of all our members who are stepping up, getting involved, and standing together for the future of public education!
