Legislative Update

Dear Members, 

 

I hope all is well with you and your families during this uncertain time.  

With some of our members being on furlough, we want to continue to keep you inform. The general election is on November 3rd and is fast approaching, we wanting to send you a quick note with various links regarding voter registration, requesting an absentee voter ballot and, most of all, voter education. Remember, you do not need a reason to vote early with Michigan’s new voter law. You may register to vote online until October 19th, 2020. From October 20th through November 3rd, you can register to vote with your local clerk with proof of residency. 

We respect the divide between business and personal matters, and therefore we are sending this information to your personal email address. Please be aware that no union dues are ever spent on political matters, such as partisan campaigning. If you are interested in learning more about the Michigan Education Association (MEA)’s Political Action Committee (PAC), please visit the MEA link below. In these uncertain times, engagement is more important than ever. Do not be discouraged but be encouraged to participate.
