Convention Resolutions

Ready to take the fight to your branch meeting, state convention, and National convention?

The BFN resolutions committee met on March 14th to discuss NALC national convention resolutions. We recommend the resolutions listed below. Convention Resolutionsthat were discussed at the March 14th subcommittee meeting. 

All convention resolutions and constitutional amendments must be received by Nicole Rhine’s office by June 3rd to be printed in the Resolutions and Amendments convention booklet. Resolutions received after June 3rd can still be considered but will not be printed in the convention book and essentially get deprioritized in the convention process.
