Dear Sisters and Brothers,   Tax time is coming up again and everyone wants to know the amount of deductible union dues paid for 2016. The amount of deductible dues paid that we can declare on our taxes is $1,380.16. As always this amount does not include the percent of our dues that are allocable to non-deductible lobbying expenditures for political purposes. This amount also assumes all twelve months were worked.   Please email or call me with any questions.   Thank you,   Jim Whitty Secretary/Treasurer
