Background

GPUS Rules and Procedures, Article I, Chapter IV, Section 3, reads: "3. An accredited state party which has failed to cast votes for a period of six months, or has not sent delegates to two consecutive meetings of the National Committee, may be assigned to temporary inactive status, upon recommendation of the Accreditation Committee and majority vote of the National Committee. Parties assigned to temporary inactive status will retain GREEN PARTY accreditation and, insofar as possible, will continue to receive NC correspondence; but shall not be counted toward the NC quorum." Because the NC voting quorum requirements are based on the number of active states voting, having non-voting states listed as active can help make the passage of some proposals before the National Committee very difficult.

The Indiana Green Party has requested their party be designated inactive per GNC participation requirements. Members will continue to network at the local level.

Proposal

The Indiana Green Party is assigned to inactive status.

TIMELINE

This will take effect immediately upon passage, and the Secretary will be directed to make such changes as needed to put this into effect.
