Sample Reimbursement Resolution

Chicago Teachers Strike Travel Stipend

Submitted by: Jeff B and Michael E

Note: the “whereas” clause is where you give the justification for the resolution. Why should we vote to pass this, why does it matter, etc. The “be it resolved” section just tells us what we are deciding to do.

Whereas working people are most powerful when we are organized and able to act collectively to fight back against our oppressors,

Whereas organizing workers on the job and supporting labor unions is critical to strengthening the socialist movement and DSA,

Whereas among the greatest means of showing our solidarity with all working people is to stand with them on the picket line as they use one of the most powerful weapons of our class, the strike,

Whereas the Chicago Teachers Union is a vibrant, militant, progressive organization of educators and school workers, with 35,000 members who recently showed 94% support for a strike, and went out Thursday, October 17th,

Be it resolved that New Orleans DSA uses the $171 in its travel fund as a stipend to be split equally between all members who go to Chicago to support the teachers’ strike.
