Congratulations to our union’s delegates, and to everyone who was nominated and took part in the election.

The biennial CWA Convention connects us to fellow union members across North America, including other journalists and media workers, and provides an opportunity to share information, build solidarity, and strategize on matters of mutual concern. The convention is also an important venue for the governance of our international union.
