Next Step - Become a member

Thanks for taking action on this important issue!

Now it’s time to take the next step. 

The strength of our union comes from engaged members standing together. If you’re not already a member, now is the time to join and help build the power we need to win on this issue and more! Becoming a member of Local 1000 gives you a voice in your future PLUS exclusive benefits.

A Voice in your union

Members determine our union priorities, give us the leverage to be successful at the bargaining table, and the power to defend our benefits from constant attacks. Membership dues are currently 1.5% of monthly gross salary and are presently capped at $90 per month. Members vote for our Union’s officers, elect our bargaining team, and ratify our Union’s contract.

Enhanced representation
Members have access to the Union’s Legal and Research departments and experienced, professional representatives who defend your hard-earned rights in the areas that matter most: Skelly hearings, AWOLs, working out of class, disability, and leaves.

Exclusive discounts
Members can save hundreds of dollars on local goods and services, travel, theme park admissions, and other entertainment venues. And enjoy affordable group rates and discounts on insurance and service plans that include auto, home, pet, and life coverage.

Protect your hard-earned contract rights, wages, benefits, and retirement. Have a voice in the direction of your Union.
