YES! I want to be a union member. I support advocating for quality services and good jobs. I understand that as a WFSE member I will help make our union stronger to protect public services and work together to improve pay, benefits and working conditions for all public employees. Effective immediately, I hereby voluntarily authorize and direct my Employer to deduct from my pay each pay period, an amount equivalent to dues as set in accordance with the Washington Federation of State Employees (WFSE) Constitution and By-Laws and authorize my Employer to remit such amount semi-monthly to the Union (currently 1.5% of my salary per pay period not to exceed the maximum, capped at $125.66 per month as of July 1, 2024). This voluntary authorization and assignment shall be irrevocable for a period of one year from the date of execution or until the termination date of the collective bargaining agreement (if there is one) between the Employer and the Union, whichever occurs sooner, and for year to year thereafter unless I give the Employer and the Union written notice of revocation prior to the end of any yearly period, regardless of whether I am or remain a member of the Union, unless I am no longer in active pay status in a WFSE bargaining unit; provided however, if the applicable collective-bargaining agreement specifies a longer or different revocation period, then only that period shall apply. This card supersedes any prior check-off authorization card I signed. I recognize that my authorization of dues deductions, and the continuation of such authorization from one year to the next, is voluntary and not a condition of my employment.
