If I join as an Organization Member, do all my employees become members of ANS?
No, the Organization Membership program does not include flow down Individual Memberships. Organization Members have the option to purchase bulk packages of Individual Memberships. Please reach out to organization@ans.org for a custom quote!
What portion of dues goes toward lobbying?
American Nuclear Society member dues are not used for contributions to political parties or candidates or for independent expenditures on behalf of parties or candidates. Less than 1/10 of 1.0% (or 0.1%) of dues money goes to lobbying efforts. In the case of someone at the $195 dues level, this would be approximately 19 cents.
