Select Dues Per Pay Period

NOTE

By vote of the 2015 AFT NM Convention, a portion of ATF membership dues ($1.00 per month or $.50 per pay period) is now allocated to the AFT NM COPE (Committee on Political Education) Fund which can be used for political purposes. This is a voluntary designation and you may opt-out at any time by notifying ATF in writing. In opting out, your $1.00 per month will be allocated to the non-political AFT NM Organizing Fund. Neither designation increases dues.

Authorization For Payroll Deduction of ATF Dues

I hereby authorize APS to deduct from the compensation due me one (1) deduction per pay period representing Federation membership dues in the amount certified to the APS Board, in writing, by the Albuquerque Teachers Federation and remit to the ATF. APS Board assumes no responsibility in connection with this authorized deduction except to act as remitting agent in forwarding the amount deducted to the ATF.
As per the APS/ATF Negotiated Agreement Article 2.9. Dues deductions may be discontinued or revoked by a union member by filing such notice with the Federation. a) Such revocation may be requested during the ten days following the anniversary date of each employee’s employment. b) Within ten days of the receipt of notice of revocation of authorization for the payroll deduction of dues, the Federation shall provide notice to the District. c) The revocation for the payroll deduction of dues shall be effective on the thirtieth day after the notice provided to the District by the Federation.

Authorization For Payroll Deduction for COPE

In addition to the above deduction for union dues, I hereby authorize APS to deduct from my salary the designated sum per pay period and forward that amount to the Albuquerque Teachers Federation Committee on Political Education (COPE). This authorization is signed freely and voluntarily and without fear of reprisal, and I will not be favored or disadvantaged because I exercise this right. I understand this money will be used by ATF-COPE to make political contributions. This voluntary authorization may be revoked at any time by notifying the Albuquerque Teachers Federation Committee on Political Education (COPE) in writing of my desire to do so. Contributions or gifts to ATF-COPE are not deductible as charitable contributions for Federal Income Tax purposes.
