Good morning—this episode is a brief announcement: I posted a GoFundMe to cover mailing costs for my run for vice president. My fundraising goal for postage is $600 (likely closer to $1,000) to reach more voters. Anything raised beyond the $600 postage goal will be donated to a branch member who needs a wheelchair-accessible van for her child. If you’re in Metro Detroit, you can also help through a local bottle drive.  https://gofund.me/3a986c16e  
Their Data, Your Victory, Digging Into Grievance Gold. This episode is about using the various TACs reports that are at our disposal to be able to prove your burden of proof in any grievance. Today we start with TACS and if stewards like this one I will move onto the other systems like DOIS.

If injustice angers you, this episode is not for you.
