  We describe the invariant structure common to abelian fractional quantum Hall
systems with spin. It appears in a generalization of the lattice description of
the polarized hierarchy that encompasses both partially polarized and
unpolarized ground state systems. We formulate, using the spin-charge
decomposition, conditions that should be satisfied so that the description is
SU(2) invariant. In the case of the spin- singlet hierarchy construction, we
find that there are as many SU(2) symmetries as there are levels in the
construction. We show the existence of a spin and charge lattice for the
systems with spin. The ``gluing'' of the charge and spin degrees of freedom in
their bulk is described by the gluing theory of lattices.
