“SEIU 2015 mourns the passing of Bill Camp, former head of the Sacramento Central Labor Council, who was a steadfast champion of workers and social justice. From his early days in the Civil Rights Movement to his transformative leadership as Executive Secretary of the Sacramento Central Labor Council, Bill’s unwavering commitment to dignity, fair wages, and justice for all working people has left an indelible mark on the labor movement. Whether organizing in the fields with farmworkers or advocating for labor rights in the halls of power, Bill’s life was defined by courage and compassion. His work extended beyond the labor movement, as he fought for racial and economic equality, standing alongside those most marginalized.

Bill’s legacy is one of unity, mentorship, and relentless advocacy for a better world, one where every worker has a voice. As we reflect on his extraordinary life, we honor his enduring contributions and vow to continue his fight for justice.”
