US Department of Labor finalizes rule protecting union workers
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Labor today announced a final rule that increases financial transparency for unions regulated by the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 and enhances union worker protections.
Issued by the department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards, the final rule modernizes the reporting requirements of the Form LM-2, an annual financial disclosure form which larger labor organizations use to report their financial conditions and operations under the act. The final rule also creates an enhanced Form LM-2 Long Form for the nation’s largest labor organizations and increases filing thresholds for Forms LM-2, LM-3, and LM-4 to alleviate burden on smaller labor organizations.
The final rule increases transparency for America’s hardworking union members by making practical reporting adjustments to reflect the growth and expansion of labor organizations’ financial operations since the passage of the LMRDA. The Office of Labor-Management Standards last substantially revised the Form LM-2 in 2003 and has not updated reporting thresholds for Forms LM-3 and LM-4 since 1992.
“Modern unions are financially complex organizations,” said Office of Labor-Management Standards Director Elisabeth Messenger. “The final rule fine tunes reporting requirements for larger labor organizations – many of which report tens of millions of dollars in assets each year – and adjusts thresholds for smaller labor organizations to increase transparency for America's hardworking union members and ensure reporting requirements keep pace as labor organizations evolve.”
Additionally, the rule allows union members to stay better informed of their union’s financial conditions and operations by making it easier to see how their union dues are spent. Increasing union financial transparency better enables members to meaningfully and effectively participate in the democratic governance of their union. The reforms also serve as a deterrent to fraud and embezzlement, and aid in their detection.
The Office of Labor-Management Standards administers and enforces provisions of the LMRDA, which promotes union democracy and financial integrity in private sector labor unions, transparency for labor unions and their officials, as well as transparency for employers and labor relations consultants.
Report labor-management fraud and other criminal activity by email to OLMS-Public@dol.gov, to the OLMS National Office at 202-693-0143, or to your local OLMS field office.

I will be calling and emailing first thing Monday morning. Philly heads are going roll.
Sounds awesome!!
I would highlight any expenditure that does not meet the following criteria:
1) It was made in the best interest of the membership,
2) It was made in relation to representational activities,
3) It was made in relation to collective bargaining,
4) It was made in relation to the reasonable operation of the Union. Paying for office supplies, computers, cell phones, utilities, etc.
5) The expenditure was PRE-APPROVED at a regular meeting by the entity making the payment via a motion that was seconded and approved with an explanation of the expenditure that was also recorded in the meeting minutes.
So paying for services or purchases with a credit card that are then approved and paid for after the fact by LU executive committee members or Council Delegates are illegal.
Spending thousands on Ride Share services, ITunes, and eating at high end restaurants are all non-compliant expenditures. All of which are listed in the LM2’s. Spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on Delegate meetings at casinos and five star golf results would be non-compliant.
Buying a building we don’t need that doesn’t make any financial sense would be non-compliant. Spending day after day at golf courses during work hours that should be non paid time are non compliant. You could make these guys cry real tears if you file a complaint challenging these illegal expenditures!! One last thing to consider, Johnny Doc got convicted for doing the same exact thing these UBC/EAS clowns do every day, so what’s a crime for him should be a crime for them!!!
Enjoy the weather!!
How about Byrne gifting a vehicle to Tom Flynn so he can go to work for a union drywall company
Byrne is so stupid and stubborn he has no moral characteristics.
Byrne and Flynn gifted local 326 to Okie Dokie after him and the others bankrupted local 43 and the Fwinntez guy that’s an abomination how many members out of work? we will never know the real number because all the newly recruited Latinos run back to the non union as soon as they get laid off solidarity my arse Joe go figure
Fwentez is a spin off of fwinny. Both out for their own self interest.
Speaking of that building at the Navy Yard are there MONTHLY FEES, like HOA the Council has to pay for? If so how much of the members dues money ?
I’m certain there are fees as they do not own the Navy Yard. They were just dumb enough to buy a building in the Navy Yard. I’m sure it’s going to cost us members a small fortune.
Hey Billy, how much is it going to cost us members?
