AFT Resolution

ESTABLISHMENT OF AFT CONVENTION ACTIVITIES FOR PUBLIC EMPLOYEES

WHEREAS, the American Federation of Teachers has a significant portion of its members who are not teachers, and/or health care professionals; and

WHEREAS, committees at AFT conventions are designed primarily to address resolutions concerning teachers and health care professionals, and work­shops at the AFT conventions are only specifically for these members:

RESOLVED, that the AFT executive council establishes a Public Employees Convention Committee at all AFT conventions for groups of members who are neither teachers nor health care professionals; and

RESOLVED, that workshops be held for each of these groups of members at each convention in order that they may address specific issues that concern them.

(1982)

Please note that a newer resolution, or portion of a resolution, may have superseded an earlier resolution on the same subject. As a result, with the exception of resolutions adopted at our most recent AFT convention, resolutions do not necessarily reflect current AFT policies.
