I understand this must be done by written notice within 15 days of the date of the bank statement, or within 45 days after the charge was made. Contributions to SEIU COPE are voluntary and not a condition of membership in SEIU or of employment with any employer. SEIU members may refuse to make contributions without fear of reprisal. Contributions to SEIU COPE will be used for federal, state, and local elections and other political purposes. Contributions to SEIU COPE are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.
Any amount indicated is only a suggestion.
Members are free to contribute more or less than this amount, and SEIU will not favor or disadvantage anyone because of the amount of his or her contribution or because of his or her decision not to contribute.
