This April, SEIU members from across the United States and Canada will participate in the SEIU Convention in Chicago, Illinois from April 24-27, 2020. This year’s SEIU Convention marks our 100-year anniversary, and promises to be an exciting chance to plan the future of SEIU to meet the challenges and opportunities of the new decade.
There will be 45 delegate seats for SEIU 721 members and these will be filled by a formal nomination and election process in accordance with the SEIU Local 721 Bylaws, the SEIU Constitution, and federal law.
The delegate seats are divided proportionally by region based on the number of full dues-paying members in each unit.
Nominations will be accepted by petition, which means members who are interested in being nominated must submit at least 10 signatures from dues- paying members from their specific region only.
Candidate Eligibility Requirements:
You must be a member in good standing for two continuous years preceding your nomination; cannot be convicted of a disqualifying crime; and cannot be a current elected officer of the Local.
The deadline to return nomination petition is 5 pm on February 13, 2020 to the SEIU Local 721 office in your region, or by fax at (213) 380-8040.
