Attached is the updated Policy Manual which includes the changes from the
just-adopted email ballot.

Staff, please post this to the website when you get a chance to do so.

I have added a footnote (#40) beside the term "fixed membership" to provide
a reference to its definition in RONR.  This new footnote was not part of
the email ballot, so it should be considered a change proposed by the
Secretary under Policy Manual Section 1.01.4, Document Maintenance, which
states in part:

"The Secretary may propose adding or amending annotations in the form of
endnotes and introductory language to provide relevant references to
authoritative statutes, the Party’s Corporate Charter and Bylaws, the
parliamentary authority, and explanations as to how Special Rules of Order
differ from the parliamentary authority.

The Secretary shall promptly submit such proposals to the LNC, along with
any written opinions provided by the Party’s parliamentarian. These
proposals shall be considered adopted thirty days thereafter or upon the
close of the next LNC meeting, whichever is sooner. The LNC may veto such
proposals by majority vote prior to adoption.

If the LNC objects to my addition of this footnote, it may veto it by
majority vote prior to the end of the upcoming LNC meeting.
