Pay union dues only after a first contract is approved by the membership of that bargaining unit.
Vote to approve any contract before it goes into effect.
Can elect union officers, attend membership meetings, serve on union committees and volunteer as stewards. (This includes running for and voting on the initial bargaining committee.)
Know that the involvement of each member makes a difference!
I hereby request and accept membership in the COMMUNICATIONS WORKERS OF AMERICA and when accepted by the Local, agree to be bound by the Constitution of the Union and Amendments thereto and Rules and Regulations now in effect or subsequently enacted by the Union and/or the Local to which I am assigned.
