CER Legacy Sponsors

The Cecil E. Roberts Legacy Fund has been established to honor of one of America’s most dynamic and militant labor leaders in our history. Born in a coal company house “15 miles up a holler” in West Virginia, Cecil Roberts rose from humble yet proud roots to become a powerful voice on behalf of coal miners and all workers throughout North America and the globe.
