NY NewsGuild-CWA President Susan DeCarava Makes History as First NY NewsGuild President Honored with NYC CLC Visionary Award
On May 13 Susan DeCarava, President of the NewsGuild was honored with the NYC Central Labor Council Visionary Award—the first-ever president of The NewsGuild of New York to receive the prestigious award in its nearly 60-year history.
During her presidency, the NewsGuild of New York has been on an organizing and bargaining tear, doubling its number of new members and winning standard-setting contracts, including for Times Tech, the largest unit of tech workers in the country—and has never been willing to back down from a fight, holding a number of powerful actions and winning strikes at several media outlets.
“I am so honored to receive the NYCCLC’s Visionary Award," said Susan. "Especially in the company of all the dedicated labor leaders working to improve what it means to work and live in our great city. As someone who comes from the rank-and-file of our union, it is one of the greatest privileges of my professional life to work collectively with NYGuild members to build a deeply organized, worker-powered union."
