Background

This is a friendly amendment to Proposal 864 which was accepted by the sponsors but not added to the proposal language before voting began. This is a housekeeping correction to 864. Because this amendment seemed to have broad support during discussion, a minimum discussion period is requested.

Proposal

Increase apportionment of delegates for recognized caucuses from one delegate to two. Edit Article I, Section VI.1.b of GPUS Rules and Procedures, as amended by Proposal 864, to read:

1(b): When a caucus gains accreditation by GPUS, it is awarded two voting delegates and one alternate to the GPUS National Committee, and up to three voting members to each Standing Committee. This apportionment is permanent, and does not change in relation to membership strength. Additional individuals from a caucus, with the consent of the caucus, are welcomed to volunteer for GPUS working committees as permitted by committee rules.

Resources

Immediate implementation of this rule change. Webmaster is instructed to update the content immediately upon passage.
