Through the years, LIUNA has grown and prospered, and is now comprised of:

• Over 500,000 members
• 400 Local Unions
• 44 District Councils
• 9 Regional Offices
• 1 Canadian Sub-Regional Office
• International Headquarters in Washington, DC

The International Union and its affiliates operate under LIUNA’s Constitution, which is subject to amendment by delegates attending the International Union General Convention held every five years. The Union’s programs and agenda are set at the same General Convention through the consideration and adoption of resolutions submitted by Convention delegates and by the General Executive Board.

Staff, including Regional Managers and International Representatives from the nine Regional Offices, provide assistance to the District Councils and Local Unions within their geographical jurisdiction, and represent the International to each.

Members have representation by the Business Manager, Field Representatives and Stewards of their Local Union. The Local Union members participate in an election process to vote for their Business Manager and the Local Union Executive Board.
