13.4 Use of Funds for Electioneering
- IEEE funds may not be used for IEEE
electioneering, except those expenses
normally incurred in publicity and arrangements
of meetings and those expenses normally
incurred in publication of a newsletter or
similar periodical. The same policy is
applicable to candidates for office and
to proponents and opponents of initiative
issues. Candidates for office, or
proponents or opponents of initiatives may be
invited to appear at meetings to discuss their
position, and may be reimbursed for
actual travel expenses by the organizational
unit organizing the meeting.
- The use of IEEE funds for
electioneering purposes in any governmental
election is prohibited.
