Last call to beat the national dues increase
Effective July 1, The American Legion’s national per-capita dues will increase from $18.50 to $23.50. This $5 dues increase starts with the 2025 membership year.
Now is the time to renew or join to beat the dues increase. And take advantage of the Legion's multiyear membership option.
More than 28,000 American Legion members have selected the multiyear membership option to renew or join since its launch in early December 2023. The multiyear members locked in the current national per-capita rate of $18.50 for the next three years to beat the $5 dues increase. You too can beat the dues increase by either selecting a one-year membership or a three-year membership now. Here’s how:
- To renew your membership for 2025, visit legion.org/renew.
- To join the Legion, visit legion.org/join.
What you need to know about a multiyear membership:
- The three-year membership sign-up is only available on the national American Legion website (legion.org/renew and legion.org/join). Current or potential members cannot renew or join for a three-year membership at the post level or through MyLegion.org.
- Payment for the three-year membership is upfront.
- There is not a discounted rate with the three-year membership.
- Membership cards will still be sent annually by Legion posts.
- Those who sign up for a multiyear membership will not receive a renewal notice during the time they have signed up for the multiyear membership.
- A single year membership is still an option.
Even though the 100% Target Date has passed, keep pushing membership because departments that meet their membership goal between now and national convention will be recognized on stage in New Orleans.
