The Auxiliary to the
American Postal Workers Union

 

2008 National Convention - Las Vegas NV August 18 - 22

The Auxiliary to the American Postal Workers Union    Updated 9-8-06

We are a grassroots organization uniting the friends, families and retirees of
the members of the American Postal Workers Union. United by common goals and
interests, Auxiliary members are engaged in the kind of community and civic involvement
 that is necessary to present the best possible image of labor to the American People.
The Auxiliary stresses both political and philanthropic work.

Without their help, the APWU would be unable to carry out many of the time consuming
"nuts and bolts" activities essential to the success of our union.

It will again be an event to remember. Aside from the routine convention business, we will have the opportunity to submit resolutions setting direction for our Auxiliary during the next two years. Additionally we will elect all officers of the Executive Board -- and any Auxiliary member in good standing may seek election to office.
Resolutions should be discussed and acted upon locally and / or statewide -- and submitted to the National President and Secretary. The deadline will be published soon. It's not too early to begin discussing possible resolutions.
