The General Council
The Transit Riders Union is a member-run organization. Our work is coordinated by the General Council, a body of nine officers elected by the membership, alongside our General Manager.
The Council serves as the administrative engine of our union. Their responsibility is to translate the vision set during our monthly Membership Meetings into strategic action: coordinating our specialized work-groups, managing day-to-day operations, and making urgent decisions between meetings to keep our campaigns moving forward. The General Council meets monthly, and positions serve 1- or 2-year terms.
