The delegates have authorized a state-wide day of action.

After much debate and an amendment, WEA has been given the charge that in the case of an across-the-board pay cut and/or regressive changes to the any educator's salary schedule, it will organize a state-wide day of action within the locals to educate and protest. Originally, this NBI called for a specific date of September 21, 2011 for a day long strike. The arguments against this specific date included being too soon to properly organize such an event and taking away control from the local organizations to decide what form of action they would like to take. Stephen Miller, Sammamish Council UniServ President, provided the amendment that place the control back into the hands of the locals.
