How can I participate in decision-making in our Local Union?

One Local Bylaws describe the governance structure of our Local, including how we make decisions collectively in our union.

According to the UAW constitution, and as has worked at other UAW academic worker Locals, the members are the highest authority and we meet at least once per month to discuss and take decisions about our union. Check our calendar!

Members elect an Executive Board (President, Vice-President, etc.) to represent them in between membership meetings. We also have elected a number of Stewards to help organize and enforce workers’ rights under the contract.
