This spring UESF will hold elections for our affiliate conventions and seats within the CTA State Council. Our first election this spring will be for CFT Convention Delegates and currently vacant CTA State Council Seats.
Here are the details for our first round of elections-

The Convention CFT puts on each year is their highest governance body, where delegates shape union policy and position on issues affecting all members. The biennial Convention is open to all CFT members, but only elected delegates can vote at the convention. “Union Power for all,” the biennial CFT Convention, is scheduled for Friday March 14, 2025 to Sunday, March 16, 2025, and will be held in San Diego.
