Where do your dues go?
$35.15 monthly, 8 months per year (Oct-Dec & Feb-May)
NOTE: CTA (State) dues include a $20 Voluntary Dues Contribution to support CTA advocacy and the CTA Foundation for Teaching and Learning. Members not wishing to contribute may request a refund but you have to contact CTA directly. Neither the college nor MPFA can make this request for you.
MPFA (local) pays stipends to the negotiating team out of our funds that derive from our dues; that was $2400 over the last year, and considering how much time the negotiators put in, this puts them well below the hourly minimum wage (a huge bargain, in my humble opinion, considering the gains that the new contract gives us!). The president of MPFA is paid by the college. All board members are volunteers, but in the past we have received some grants to help with stipends; and we apply for grants to help offer prizes and buy food for fall/spring social events (once per semester).
Other costs include: a yearly cost for secure, CTA approved elections ($334); and the web site/domain address also have yearly fees.
- MPFA (Local) receives $68.20
- CTA/CCA (State) receives $144.30
- NEA receives $68.50
