Office of the President

The Office of the President addresses statewide union issues, executive committee work, and the business of the Board of Directors.

The President is the presiding officer of the union's biennial convention. The President has the responsibility for enforcing the rules of order for the convention, with the assistance of a Parliamentarian.

As chair of the convention, the President makes judgments on voice votes, recognizes persons wishing to speak, calls on committee chairpersons for reports, introduces guests and speakers and guides the delegates through the demanding business of the convention.

The President also delivers a "State of the Union" address to the delegates.

His work is supported by an executive assistant.
