The 1999 WEAC Representative Assembly is April 23-25 at the Midwest Express Center in Milwaukee.
About 1, 000 delegates will vote on a variety of issues, including the annual WEAC budget, resolutions and new business items.
Delegates will also take up the result of a new business item from last year. The 1998 Representative Assembly’s New Business Item 4 called for creation of an advisory council on strategies to repeal or modify revenue controls and the Qualified Economic Offer law. The council met over the last year, and its report is now ready for RA action.
The report calls for an initiative to inform the public about the success of Wisconsin’s public schools while defining revenue controls and the QEO as barriers to educational quality in public schools.
The initiative would change public perceptions about public education; engage members, parents, school officials and community leaders in dialogues about creating “great schools;” and create a climate for the election of pro-education candidates.
Delegate packets were mailed to UniServs the week of March 29. Each local is entitled to one delegate for each 50 members.
