CEJ Buffalo CEJ wins dynamic campaigns by uniting labor, faith, and community leaders

CEJ was formed in 1986 when religious and labor leaders organized a campaign together to stop good manufacturing jobs from being outsourced to Mexico by the Trico corporation. Since our founding, CEJ has collaborated with a wide array of partners to win local campaigns for corporate and government accountability, sustainable economic development, and worker justice. CEJ has also taken its fight to Albany, recognizing that too often decisions impacting our local communities are made at the state level. CEJ is the co-anchor of a statewide alliance of worker and community groups and has been at the forefront of the fight for reform of wasteful economic development programs. As an extension of our issue work we engage in voter education and engagement – registering new voters, encouraging occasional voters to become more active participants in our democracy, and providing all voters with information about where candidates stand on our issues. The Coalition for Economic Justice is one of 42 community-labor coalitions nationwide that comprise the national Jobs with Justice network, as well as the NY State Labor-Religion Coalition.

With heavy hearts, we send our condolences to the Allison family after 36-year-old Zaire ‘Flip’ Allison was killed last Thursday night after being struck by a vehicle on Bailey Avenue.

‘ For someone to just despise him like he wasn’t nothing… he was from good material’- Yvette Allison Grandmother of ‘Flip’.

In just a split second motor vehicles can become a lethal weapon when drivers are careless and irresponsible. We must not keep treating these tragedies as mere accidents. Our community deserves safe streets and the systemic changes that follow, in order to ensure that everybody can get to where they need to be safely.

Happy belated labor day to everyone but especially to Scabby the rat 🐀 ❤️
