NEA Representative AssemblyAssemblies are held annually at the state and national level. The national NEA Representative Assembly (RA) is traditionally held in the summer the week of July 4th.The NEA RA is the Association’s national governing body. Members from across the country have the opportunity to participate in the governance of their national association as delegates and by serving on NEA RA Committees such as Budget, Bylaws and Standing Rules, Communications and by volunteering for NEA RA Liaison positions such as Liaison with States or Special Interest Liaisons. The body of the Assembly meets for four full days addressing proposed amendments to NEA Standing Rules, Constitution and Bylaws, and considering and acting on new business items and resolutions. In addition, many networking opportunities are made available at NEA RA. These opportunities help to promote communications with fellow Association members from other cities and other states.

The annual OEA General Election is held the second Tuesday of March. It is during this election that Board of Director members and NEA Representative Assembly delegates are elected.
