Member Portal
Please remind your coworkers to sign up to get important updates by email and ensure that your contact information is current. If you know a co-worker who is not getting these emails, forward this to them and tell them to sign up here. If they aren't getting emails, we don't have their contact info.

It is vitally important that we have contact with members through personal email (not work email) to ensure members receive important information and a ratification ballot.
