Revised Constitution and Bylaws

At the March 6, 2013 General Union Meeting, the Constitution Committee introduced for a first reading a completely revised and updated Constitution and Bylaws for AFT Local 1904. Our current Constitution requires that a first reading take place (which was done at the March 6, 2013 meeting), the documents distributed to full members and a vote be taken on the documents at the next General Union Meeting. It will take a two-thirds majority to pass the revisions at the April 10, 2013 General Union Meeting.

The documents are posted on our website for you to print and bring to the April meeting. If you have any edits please send them directly to President Wolfson at Rich.Wolfson@aftlcoal1904.org. If you have any amendments to the documents, bring those to the April meeting for consideration.

This process is long overdue. The Constitution Committee and your elected officers believe that the proposed new Constitution and Bylaws are a vast improvement over the current documents.
