                        2004                                                                  32

                        2005                                                                 34

            B.         Membership dues, which exceed in amount the minimum membership dues may be authorized by a majority of those voting on the question, in accordance with the Local bylaws as set out below.  Dues in excess of the minimum dues shall be retained by the Local. Local Rates above the minimum currently in effect will remain in effect as a dollar amount above the minimum dues structure as it changes by the CWA Constitution and merger agreement.

            C.        Membership dues may be increased above the constitutionally mandated Union's minimum by a majority of those members of the Local voting on the question by secret ballot referendum, or by a majority secret ballot vote in a meeting where a quorum is present, if the question has been advertised on bulletin boards at least seven (7) days in advance of the meeting or by notice mailed postage prepaid to each member at least seven (7) days in advance of the meeting
