New Union Communique: Progress Report on the CAW-CEP New Union Project
“These forums are an opportunity for our local leadership to learn more about the proposed structure and operation of the new union, so they can attend the founding convention with full knowledge and enthusiasm.”
Progress Report on the CAW-CEP New Union Project
Since the beginning of the year, six special Working Groups have been holding multiple meetings to develop a plan of action for the formation of the new union. These Working Groups have addressed several key areas: writing a constitution for the new union; developing a communications plan (including a new name); developing a strategy for new member organizing; planning for the integration of new union structures, staff, and offices; staff relations; and detailed preparations for the founding convention.
Regional Joint Meetings
The two unions will be reporting and getting feedback on the New Union formation progress so far – particularly the efforts of the Organizing, Communications and the Constitution Working Groups. All local union presidents and unit chairs are being asked to attend. All CEP and CAW members are welcome to attend.
