Under the leadership of President Daniel C. Levler and his Executive Board, our Union not only has a seat at every table, but we are looked upon as independent leaders among lawmakers, community leaders, and other Union officials. President Levler was recognized in 2021 by City & State as one of the top labor leaders in New York State as well as one of the top 100 leaders on Long Island. With strong relationships in both parties, he has played a key role in important issues including defeating the Constitutional Convention and passing Proposition 2 which delivers hundreds of millions for Suffolk’s general fund and kept AME jobs during an unprecedented global fiscal crisis.

Our Union is highly engaged with the general public through the Suffolk Matters weekly radio show listened to by thousands each week, Mayday Music Festival, and support for charities that play a critical role in our communities. President Levler was also recently appointed Co-Chair of the New York State Public Employee Conference providing a statewide leadership role. His leadership and proven success are unmatched, and as we embark upon a difficult economic climate, President Levler’s diverse skill set and ability to produce results will see our Union through the storm.

He has recently stepped up and taken on the role of Vice President on the Executive Board where he will continue his dedicated service. When asked why he initially got involved with Suffolk AME, Ben says that initially, it was because when his daughter was young, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor, and required multiple surgeries and medical specialists. Had it not been for the exceptional medical benefits that we have as members, he says they have not been able to provide her with the treatment she needed to overcome her illness. Since then, his support of and involvement with our Union has only grown, and his commitment to fighting for every member is stronger than ever.
