[Lnc-business] Memo to LP State Chairs: Send us your Affiliate News

[Joshua Katz]

I love the idea of an empowered committee taking on a task.  I would just
add that maybe the best thing to do is to hand it to the ASC rather than
requiring the committee to come back with a motion, with that committee
having the option to bring it back to the LNC if they so choose.
