    Authorization Form
  • Total Involvement in Government Education Reform

    TIGER COPE (Committee on Political Education) is the Political arm of United Teachers of Dade. UTD dues money cannot legally be used to make candidate contributions. TIGER COPE dues are collected specifically for the purpose of making contributions to candidates that support Traditional Public Schools. Participation in TIGER COPE enhances our impact in both public policy discussions and budgeting. TIGER COPE dues are $3.00 per pay for FT teachers and $1.50 per pay for Paras, Clericals and School Support Personnel.
  • I hereby authorize the Miami-Dade County School Board to deduct from my earnings an amount sufficient to provide for regular payment of UTD Tiger-C.O.P.E. This authorization is signed voluntarily and with the understanding that the UTD Tiger-C.O.P.E. is engaged in joint fund-raising efforts with the AFL-CIO and will use such money contributed to make political contributions and expenditures in connection with federal, state and local elections. I understand that such deduction is revocable upon thirty (30) days written notice to the employer and the UTD Tiger-­C.O.P.E. The Miami-Dade County School Board shall be absolved of any liability resulting from the collection of such assessment. Contributions for Tiger-C.O.P.E. are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.
