KEY UPDATES FROM THE 27TH BIENNIAL NATIONAL CONVENTION

From July 15-18, the APWU held our 27th Biennial National Convention. At the biennial conventions, APWU delegates, elected by their locals, set APWU policies and priorities in the form of resolutions that are discussed and debated by the convention body. While many resolutions addressed collective bargaining issues and priorities for our negotiations, below are some of the other actions taken by the Convention:

• Creating an additional Southern Region Maintenance NBA position and adding a new Assistant Director (C) to the Clerk Division.
• Voting to translate the CBA and JCIM into Spanish.
• Opposing the anti-worker, anti-union Project 2025.
• Calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and demanding an end to military aid to Israel until that is achieved.
• Soundly defeating a resolution calling for the APWU to run "Dump DeJoy" ads on the basis of previously adopted resolutions and that it would not be productive for members going forward.
