Colleagues,

When we adopted Proposal H, which sets a standard agenda for regular state conventions and which determines the process by which delegates and alternates are to be elected we did not know what the convention agenda would be so I did not think to put any kind of delaying proviso on this proposal. This was an oversight on my part.

Without a proviso, this proposal would cause problems under the agenda as planned, since constitution changes will be heard at the end of the proposed agenda. Therefore I propose to reconsider and amend Proposal H (aka Proposal 4 in the draft report) to add the following proviso:

Proviso: This amendment shall take effect upon the adjournment sine die of the convention at which it is adopted.

Sincerely,
Paul Bracco

I agree. I would second a motion to reconsider and amend.

Apologies, it looks like the previous email was not sent to the entire committee.

The motion is to reconsider and amend Proposal H (aka Proposal 4 in the draft report) to add the following proviso:

Proviso: This amendment shall take effect upon the adjournment sine die of the convention at which it is adopted.

I vote Aye.

I would ask the committee to please vote on this as soon as you can, the scheduled town hall is this Monday and after this motion is dispensed with we'll need to vote to finalize the report as well.

Mr. Bracco,

I concur. We don't want to end up in some sort of infinite time loop. Do we need to meet? Or do you just want to propose the amended version at the convention?
