Vote Cope Needs YOU!
This 2020 Election is important at the national and state level. Please review the NYSUT endorsements and voting information included on our website. Our benefits are under attack at the national and state level. For students, ourselves, and our colleagues in the classroom, we must be good citizens and VOTE.
We must also support our Union which works to protect our benefits. Vote-Cope letters from NYSUT will be in the mail soon and arriving at your home. If you have not signed up for pension deduction, you can do that by filling out a form. If you have pension deduction, it will continue. If you prefer, you may make a contribution to Vote-Cope directly to NYSUT. Information as to where to send contributions will be included in the letter.
If you would like to send a check now, this is the address for contributions:
