Membership isn’t a service you buy — it’s ownership of an organization you help run.
Your rights come from two sources: federal law (LMRDA — the “Bill of Rights of Members”) and our own constitutions (Local 109 + International).
Two relationships, two rulebooks: the RLA governs you-and-your-employer (see REP100); the LMRDA and our constitutions govern you-and-your-union (this course).
Rights you don’t know you have are rights you can’t use — which is exactly what the rest of MEM100 fixes.
