ALBANY, NY (04/10/2025) (readMedia)-- The CSEA Board of Directors elected two new Statewide Officers at their meeting today to fill vacancies as a result of the former Executive Vice President retiring in February.
The Board elected Richard Bebo to the Executive Vice President position. Bebo, most recently the union's Statewide Secretary, has been a CSEA member since 1999, when he began work for the New York State Department of Transportation. He has held various leadership roles within the union since 2006. Bebo was first elected to the Statewide Secretary position in February 2020 and was serving his second term.
"Richard Bebo has been a trusted friend and union brother for many years," said CSEA President Mary E. Sullivan. "He's someone who leads with his heart, who listens and who always puts our union members first. I've seen firsthand his dedication, and I know he's going to bring that same passion and integrity to his new role as Executive Vice President."
As a result of the vacancy created by the election of Bebo, the Board elected Stacey Baldwin-Deyo as Statewide Secretary. Baldwin-Deyo has been a CSEA member since 2007 and is employed as a probation officer at Greene County. She has served in various CSEA leadership roles, including currently serving as treasurer of the CSEA Greene County Local and treasurer of CSEA's Capital Region.
"Stacey Baldwin-Deyo is a passionate leader who always steps up for our union members," said Sullivan. "I'm so proud to welcome her to this new role, and I know she'll continue to be a powerful advocate for working people across our union."
