[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 2200481, member: 4992"] Yep. Just to follow that.... 3. [B]Attendance at Convention and Payment of Expenses[/B] (a) Each Local Union shall send to the Convention and pay the expenses, or make arrangements for such payment by agreement with other subordinate bodies, of all delegates to which it is entitled, unless the Local Union is financially unable to do so and the Local Union membership has voted prior to the time of submitting its Local Union Plan to send less than a full complement of delegates. A Local Union claiming financial inability shall demonstrate actual financial inability to the General Secretary-Treasurer, subject to review by the Election Supervisor who retains the authority to amend or overrule any such decision. If the Local Union is permitted and has voted to send to the Convention and pay the expenses of less than a full complement of delegates, the highest ranking delegate(s) shall be those sent and for whom expenses are paid. Nothing herein shall prohibit any delegate(s) not so sent from attending and being seated at the Convention. Such delegate(s) may seek contributions to defray any or all of their expenses, provided that such contributions conform to the requirements of Article XI of the Rules. (b) No Local Union shall be required to send to the Convention or pay the expenses of any alternate delegate unless the Local Union has indicated its intention to do so in the Local Union Plan. If the Local Union sends or pays the expenses of any alternate delegate(s), the highest-ranking alternate delegate(s), shall be those sent and for whom expenses are paid. Nothing herein shall prohibit any alternate delegate(s) not so sent from attending the Convention. Such alternate delegate(s) may seek contributions to defray any or all of their expenses, provided that such contributions conform to the requirements of Article XI of the Rules. No Local Union may pay the expenses of any alternate delegate unless it sends and pays the expenses of its full complement of delegates. (c) A Local Union may not send to the Convention or pay the expenses of any member or guest unless it pays the expenses of all its alternate delegates, regardless of the terms of the Local Union Plan. (d) Local Unions shall pay the actual, reasonable expenses of the elected delegates, including expenses for travel, hotel, and per diem expenses. A Local Union may not discriminate between its treatment of delegates and its treatment of alternate delegates, except that a Local Union may differentiate between its delegates and its alternate delegates with respect to expenses provided the Local Union acts in accordance with its approved Local Union Plan. No Local Union may discriminate among or between its delegates. No Local Union may discriminate among or between its alternate delegates. No Local Union shall treat a delegate or alternate delegate less generously than a member or guest who is not a delegate or alternate delegate.
