Article 35 - Amalgamated Local Unions

Section 2. Any two (2) or more units of an Amalgamated Local Union may petition the International Executive Board to set up a Joint Council in their Local Union. The International Executive Board shall without un-due delay investigate the practicality of a Joint Council for that Local Un-ion and if they determine that a Joint Council shall be set up, the Local Union shall without delay set up a Joint Council based on the principles in Section 3 of this Article. Members of such a Joint Council, whether directly elected thereto or holding membership thereon by virtue of being elected to some other office or position, shall be elected by secret ballot with the same notice procedures as set forth in Section 2 of Article 38.

Section 3. The membership of the Local Union shall be guaranteed:
(a) Proportional representation from each unit, based on the dues dollar each unit pays to the Local Union. In no case shall any unit be enti-tled to less than two (2) representatives to the Joint Council.
(b) The right to appeal from any decision of the Joint Council by ref-erendum vote of the membership.
(c) That each unit will have unit autonomy on matters pertaining strictly to that unit.
(d) That a percentage of every dues dollar which a unit pays to the Local Union may be set aside as a fund for the use of that unit for whatever purpose they so desire.
