After a couple years of consideration and conversation, the WACOPS Executive Board has elected to affiliate to the International Union of Police Associations.  As you know, WACOPS is the voice of law enforcement in WA and by affiliating to the International Union of Police Associations we gain the support and influence of the only union chartered exclusively for law enforcement and law enforcement support personnel. This will only make us stronger.

While IUPA’s officers, active and retired law enforcement, fight to improve the lives of their brothers and sisters in law enforcement, they do so by actively working to improve legislation that protects and affects public safety officers, as well as representing the needs of law enforcement officers and support personnel, whether that be for better equipment, more staff or a fair wage.

Your guild leadership will be receiving a packet of IUPA benefits for each of you!  Please ask for your copy and learn more about how this affiliation will provide you access to leveraged buying power (credit cards, cell phone service, retail purchases, insurance options, and prescription discounts) and free online college, higher education scholarships, and so much more!  Be sure to ask your local leadership for your package of benefits.  They should be arriving next week. 

This affiliation is paid for by WACOPS and will not change the dues you are paying each month.  You will have even better representation AND access to dozens and dozens of leveraged buying power opportunities for you and your family.  For immediate information, please visit:  Member Benefits - The International Union of Police Associations (iupa.org)
