Representation, information and a voice in Washington.

  • Representation

    Stewards help members understand their rights at work and can stand with them in meetings with management.

  • Information

    Policies, NTEU guidance and chapter news live in one searchable place, so nothing depends on an email chain.

  • Legislative voice

    Members get the chapter's tools for reaching their senators and representative, with guidance on staying within the Hatch Act.

Since 1938.

Internal Revenue collectors in Wisconsin organized for better working conditions. Chapter 8 carries that work across the Dakotas.

What membership does for you.

Membership is voluntary. Your dues pay for representation, training and the chapter's work in your office.

  • Someone in your corner

    If management calls you into a meeting that could lead to discipline, a steward can help you prepare and can ask to be in the room with you.

  • Help when something goes wrong

    Officers and stewards help members work through problems at work, backed by NTEU's national staff and lawyers.

  • A voice in Washington

    NTEU works with Congress on federal pay, benefits and the decisions that shape your job.

  • Your office counts

    News, documents and events reach Minot the same day they reach Fargo. No office is too small to matter.

How to join

Join online through NTEU. The IRS stopped taking union dues out of paychecks in 2025, so members now pay NTEU directly by card or bank draft.
