[Lnc-business] Seeking cosponsors for motion

[Brett H. Pojunis]

Mr. Vohra,

Since my involvement with the LP I have done everything I can to help grow
this into a professional organization. Professional organizations offer
generous compensation plans to attract the most qualified candidates for
the job. In addition to any cash and equity (stock options) compensation,
they are usually further compensated for their participation at board
meetings. At the very least, Board members are reimbursed for all expenses
associated with going to board meetings.

As we continue to grow the LP our need to attract the best candidates will
also increase. I fear if precedence is set now that will require LNC
members to cover the costs of LNC meetings our talent pool will shrink.
Furthermore, most LNC members already incur a lot of expenses and I do not
think it would be fair to add additional expenses to what we are already
incurring. If I understand you correctly, this would cost each
participating LNC member $275 - $400 per meeting. If there are 7 meetings
in a term that would be an additional $1,925 - $2,800 above and beyond our
travel and accommodations. It has been estimated before that throughout a 2
year term it already costs north of $2,500 should you participate in all
meetings.

The irony is that you would like to all LNC members to pay for all the
meetings, yet you advocate for no floors at the National convention. I
don't understand why this would be different. This is just a "cost of doing
business" for the party.

I am going to suggest that we do not change this at this time as to not to
turn away potential candidates for the LNC.


Best,
