Work Information

If you are a railroad worker, railroad retiree, or family of a railroader and your work information has changed since you joined or last renewed, please fill out the information below, which helps RWU to get a better understanding of where our membership is drawn from (i.e. what crafts, unions, carriers, locations, etc.) and how better to build the organization. If you are not a railroad worker, or your work information remains the same, you may skip this section. Thanks!

Your Membership Renewal Selection, Dues & Payment Information
A reminder that RWU offers TWO general membership types:
1. Voting Membership
2. Solidarity/Non-Voting Membership
Both membership types can renew for one, two, or three years. Please read the specifics laid out below:

VOTING MEMBERSHIPS are exclusive to railroad workers, railroad retirees, and family of railroad workers. If you are an active working railroader you must join as a voting member. Voting members have full voice and vote, and may hold office.

NON-VOTING SOLIDARITY MEMBERSHIPS are available to all those with no working connection to the railroad industry, as well as railroad retirees and family who prefer a Solidarity membership. Solidarity members have no vote and may not hold office.

Anyone can join as a LIFETIME MEMBER ($1000). Those who do will never have to pay dues/renew their membership again, but the only Lifetime Members who garner voting privileges must be actively working railroaders, railroad retirees, or family of railroaders.

Note: The term "railroader" means "railroad worker."
Please affirm this statement by checking the box below: "I affirm that I am NOT a manager or an officer of a rail corporation." (Managers and officers of rail corporations are NOT eligible for RWU membership.)*

I affirm.

To renew your membership, CHOOSE ONE membership type and length you want. REMINDER: VOTING MEMBERSHIPS ARE EXCLUSIVE TO RAILROAD WORKERS, RAILROAD RETIREES, AND FAMILY of RAILROAD WORKERS. Please note that "CREDIT CARD" below refers to BOTH credit and debit cards. This form accepts both.*
