A Steward's term at CUNA Mutual Group is for three years and there are a total of NINE positions to be filled, including the Chief Steward. Are you interested?

Now is the time for YOU to get involved! While many of the current Stewards will no doubt want to continue in the role, due to promotions, retirements, and relocations there are open Steward positions that need you! We need people from across the company, in every department. If you want to work to ensure a long career with the company or maybe you're nearing retirement and want to leave things better than they've been, or you feel that the next contract needs some tough negotiating, we encourage any and all of you to step forward.

As noted in the last newsletter, a Supreme Court Primary election is happening on Tuesday, February 20th. That's TOMORROW. This is a great opportunity to start shifting the balance of the Wisconsin Supreme court back to something resembling fairness. The two top vote-getters in tomorrow's primary will move on to the general election. Tim Burns and Rebecca Dallet are our best choices. The other candidate not only has the backing of the NRA but he helped defend Governor Walker's Act 10 against lawsuits when that union-busting law went into effect.

You may have heard by now: 2018 is an election year! The stakes for our state are incredibly high this year. Labor and workers have several opportunities to start shifting the state away from the anti-worker policies of the last several years.

In fact, if you live in northwestern Wisconsin, your first chance to vote is in a special election Tuesday! For the rest of us, our first opportunity comes in February with the Supreme Court Primary. A general election for that seat happens in April (more below). A primary election for the Gubernatorial race happens in August and the November general election will see that race decided as well as a Senate race, not to mention all the usual local, state, and federal races. There's a lot to keep track of, so bookmark this page
