Take Action

The Representative Convention is our highest governing body, with more than 600 elected delegates meeting annually to set policy for the union. We typically mail information to local presidents as part of the Convention Call in late February each year.

The 2025 RC will be held Friday, April 25 through Saturday, April 26 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Bloomington. The convention opens with registration at 3 p.m. on Friday and ends Saturday when all business has concluded.

The Rally to Fund Our Future has been rescheduled to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 18. Given all the uncertainty at the Capitol right now, we believe this is our best approach to raise awareness about the importance of raising the revenue needed to improve educator pay, pensions and health care.

Educators are standing up and standing together in 2024. This election is extremely important for our educators, students and schools. 9 out of 10 schools in Minnesota are facing a significant educator shortage. Now more than ever, we need elected leaders who take this issue seriously, and who pledge to seriously invest in educator pay, pensions, healthcare and working conditions so that we can have the quality schools our educators, students and communities deserve.https://www.eventleaf.com/Attendee/Attendee/EventPage?eId=qQnIjH5saDVnQ…
