DOL/ESA RIN: 1215-AB34 Publication ID: Spring 2003 
Title: Labor Organization Annual Financial Reports 
Abstract: This regulation will revise Form LM-2, which is used by labor organizations with $200,000 or more in annual receipts to file the annual financial reports required under title II of the Labor-Managment Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 (LMRDA). The proposed revisions will improve the transparency and accountability of labor organizations to their members, increase the information available to labor organization members, and make data disclosed in such reports more understandable and accessible. Among other things, unions filing the revised Form LM-2 will be required to report electronically (unless granted an exemption), to identify "major" receipts and disbursements, to allocate disbursements among categories such as contract negotiation and administration, organizing, political activity, lobbying, etc., and to report receipts and disbursements of organizations that meet the statutory definition of a "trust in which a labor organization is interested" on a new Form T-1.
