Tomorrow (July 3rd) is our first official day of the National Education Representative Assembly, but there is still work to do today (July 2nd) as we prepare. I am blessed to be on the Illinois Education Association’s Executive Board and Steering Committee so a lot of pre-conference business has to happen.
First we meet as a steering committee to review all of the proposed amendments. We have NEA Constitutional, Bylaws, Standing Rules, and Legislative Amendments, plus around a hundred New Business Items to review, Then, we will have our first Illinois State caucus meeting to begin working our way through the items as a whole delegation . These items, are important! They are the work of our members as we push to advocate for our students, colleagues, and communities. The days are long but the work is amazing!!
Pictures to come!
