The election of Laura Dickerson as Vice President created a vacancy on the UAW International Executive Board as of July 1, 2025. Therefore, pursuant to the UAW Constitution, it is necessary to conduct a Special Convention to elect a Regional Director.
In accordance with the provisions of Article 10, Section 18 of the UAW Constitution (July 2022), the UAW International Executive Board calls a Region 1A Special Convention for the purpose of conducting an election for Regional Director.
As more information becomes available about the process, we will post that information here.
