Term and Dues
PMRG membership is individual and portable. You will continue to be a member of the organization as long as you remain in the sector and pay your dues, regardless of which company employs you or if you become unemployed.
Membership in PMRG extends from January 1 to December 31 of each calendar year. There is no prorating and the $150 dues are the same regardless of when the person joins.
Contributions or gifts to PMRG are not tax deductible as charitable contributions for income tax purposes. However, they may be tax deductible as ordinary business expenses subject to restrictions imposed as a result of PMRG's lobbying activities. PMRG estimates that the non-deductible portion of your dues in 2010 allocable to lobbying will be 100%.
We look forward to your participation!
