Happy New Year! Welcome to 2015! Once again we’ve made it through one year and are at the beginning of another. The start of a new year is always exciting and this one is no different. SEANC ended 2014 on a very high note. The year saw the release of an important investigation into the state’s pension system that exposed a system of secret contracts and high hidden fees that have provided the impetus for a movement toward true pension reform and transparency. The year also saw SEANC secure the highest overall compensation increase for state employees since 2008, a cost-of-living adjustment for retirees and the continued protection of worker rights. Finally, SEANC’s convention delegates elected an enthusiastic, positive and capable group of leaders to the Executive Committee. As SEANC looks forward to the challenges ahead in 2015, I know we are in good hands under the leadership of President Wayne Fish, First Vice President Ross Hailey, Second Vice President Stanley Drewery and General Treasurer Gloria Evans.

In 2015, SEANC will continue to fight for North Carolina’s vital public services and the people who provide them. We will continue to advocate against privatization efforts and the giveaway of taxpayer dollars to corporate good ol’ boys. We will continue our efforts to protect state employee rights and due process. And, most of all, we will tell your story – the story of the people who make North Carolina great and who keep us safe and healthy every day – as we advocate for your salary increases and cost-of-living adjustments. The goal this year is a minimum 5 percent. And, just as important as our legislative goals, SEANC will be working harder than ever this year to increase its membership – not only to ensure SEANC’s future viability, but also to strengthen our voice in the General Assembly.
