Hi
all,
The House meeting to address
the Constitution issues is happening today (Saturday) at 5 in the Avery library.
This meeting will settle the following
questions:
- Should the
quorum amendments be considered passed?
- Should the
other amendments on the ballot be considered passed, on the basis that each of
them met both the 2/3 referendum requirements and the lowered quorum
requirements?
- Should the
chancellor election be considered valid, on the basis that it met the
requirements of the aforementioned amendments?
We encourage you to make
every effort to attend, since we want as much of the House present as possible.
If you are unable to attend the meeting and would like to appoint someone
to proxy vote for you, provide an absentee vote, or provide comments that you
would like read at the meeting, please email the Council (
The Convention will set its
own rules; the Council has come up with a suggested set of rules (attached),
derived from last year’s Constitutional Convention rules, that this Convention
may consider using. Once we
finish the above agenda, there will be a non-binding, unstructured
conversation about the role of the Council and its relationship to the House
(or any other issues
any Member would like to bring up).
Thank
you.
