Representation

The USAWOA represents its members in several ways. Acting on the recommendations/proposals approved by our membership and on other recommendations submitted by chapters and individual Warrant Officers, we ensure that these actions are brought to the attention of the appropriate action officers with the backing of the USAWOA.

Our Association is a full member of The Military Coalition (TMC), comprised of approximately 35 military-oriented associations with headquarters in the Washington, D.C. area. Through the TMC, we keep abreast of the personnel legislative actions pending in Congress. At these meetings, the various association representatives discuss matters of common concern and give one another the full benefit of their knowledge, experience, and background. Through the TMC, USAWOA receives the full benefit of many years of experience on the "Hill," plus the support of our sister associations in matters affecting our members. Through USAWOA's affiliation with the TMC, our Warrant Officer members add their voices to those of more than 5.5 million others interested in the common good of the military community. The Association's primary efforts are directed toward DA and DOD. We work with the appropriate officers on the DOD staff to recommend changes to the applicable policies. This advocacy is provided to ensure all Warrant Officers are professionally and adequately represented within the Department of Defense, the Department of the Army, the Department of Veterans Affairs, on Capitol Hill, in the White House, and with all relevant professional coalitions and organizations associated with, and supportive of, the defense of the United States of America.
