Keith Williams, Senior Vice President

As a public high school teacher and coach for over 20 years, Keith Williams led the only successful school district in Pennsylvania to overturn union fair share fees before the Supreme Court’s Janus v. AFSCME decision. He also successfully sued the union to end ghost teaching practices and provided valuable testimony in support of employee rights legislation.

He was recruited from the classroom to lead and grow a now nationally recognized nonprofit, where he headed the successful decertification of an AFL-CIO affiliated union in a Pittsburgh-area school district. As a direct result of Keith’s work, Pennsylvania’s largest unions were forced to drop maintenance of membership windows from state contracts, freeing over 50,000 state workers and serving as a testament to the power of authentic relationships and effective coalition-building.

Keith has been a speaker at state and national labor policy events and his work has been published in the Wall Street Journal, Philadelphia Inquirer, and other major media outlets. At CIE, he continues his core belief of helping America’s workforce understand the consequences of joining a union.
