TERM AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF OFFICERS

In accordance with the GEO Bylaws, all officers are elected for one year terms. Bargaining team members serve for the length of a contract bargaining session. The Interim Election will be held for the duration of each term:

Bargaining Research and Proposal Coordinator (1)

The two Bargaining Research & Proposal Coordinators will focus on researching, drafting, discussing, and writing our contract proposals for negotiations. These elected members will also help argue for our proposals at the bargaining table with the administration. Paid GEO Bargaining team members are expected to make Bargaining-related trainings and meetings that have been scheduled (around team members’ availability). These elected members will also serve as the liaison between the negotiating/research group, and will be in regular communication with the existing listserv of members who have signed up to be active on this committee and the bargaining committee.

Please contact elections if you have any questions.

In Solidarity,

GEO Elections Committee
