Background

The Annual National Meeting Committee solicited proposals from states beginning in August and concluding October 30, 2023. After reviewing the Request for Proposals (RFP) and participating in question/answer conference calls with committee member(s), two proposals were submitted. Based on feedback from the 2023 Annual National Meeting, the National Committee voted to also amend the rules to include a virtual-only option in the proposal. Each in-person proposal will also include streaming services for some presentations and for the Saturday convention.

Because many delegates appreciate the intimacy, lower cost and easier networking opportunities of an in-person meeting at a venue, such as a university or non-profit conference center, we encouraged the planners to seek an all-inclusive venue (food, lodging, meeting space). All proposals assume the same number of breakout rooms for workshops, space for delegate meetings, media, registration, and nominating convention. Many costs can be negotiated and the costs you see on both proposals are the maximums for meeting spaces and some other budget items. The groups were asked to provide budget and substantive information on the respective locations, including food and lodging options for attendees to purchase separately.

In the past, convention costs have been covered by attendee registration fees. For these proposals, given higher than usual costs, we expect that other revenues will be needed to cover the costs, in addition to attendee registrations.
Cost is only one factor to consider and it is usually negotiable. Some other important additional considerations in ranking the PNC proposals are (in no particular order):

----- Geographical location - We try to be in a different region for the PNC every 4 years.
2008 was Chicago, 2012 was Baltimore, 2016 was Houston, 2020 was virtual. ANMs were 2009-Durham, 2010-Detroit (in collaboration with the US Social Forum), 2011-Alfred, NY, 2013-Iowa City, 2014-Minneapolis, 2015–St. Louis, 2017-Newark, 2018-Salt Lake City and 2019–Salem, MA.

----- Demographics/Diversity - Are there opportunities for outreach to underrepresented groups including young people, working class, people of color, marginalized populations?

----- Activities – Are there opportunities to petition, protest or participate in petition drives, living wage campaigns, etc.?

----- Accessibility – Are the venue and lodging near a major airport hub. Is there good public transportation between venues and lodging?

----- Major media market

---- Size of volunteer base
