About the UWUA
Finances
The UWUA is by no means a charity. It is a big business, surviving on the dues, fees and fines of its hard-working members.
The UWUA is required each year to file a document called an “LM-2,” which reports the union’s most recent financial flow. It also provides information on how the union collects and spends its members’ dues and fees. Download UWUA’s LM-2 Report.
Workers pay for most of the union’s costs and overhead through their dues. These costs include lobbying, travel and the salaries and benefits for union officers and staff.
