We have an
electronic mail ballot.
Votes are due to the LNC-Business list by October 31,
2016
at 11:59:59pm Pacific time.
Co-Sponsors: Harlos, Demarest, Hayes, Vohra,
Starchild, Goldstein, Redpath
Motion:
Whereas Nevada Assemblyman John Moore, a former Republican
who in January 2016 switched to the Libertarian Party while
in office, has during the past month voted not once but
twice in the span of as many days to raise taxes on his
constituents, including a vote to support a "More
Cops" tax which the Libertarian Party of Nevada has
tirelessly and thus far successfully opposed, and a vote to
provide a $750 million subsidy to finance a
billionaire-owned sports stadium at the expense of, among
others, indigent persons renting weekly rooms in motels;
and
Whereas the elected leaders of our state affiliate party in
Nevada have rightfully voted to censure Assemblyman Moore
for these egregious votes; and
Whereas we wish to convey a strong message to all and sundry
that while we welcome sitting legislators in the Republican
or Democrat parties who decide to switch to the Libertarian
Party as an act of conscience, we do not welcome them if
they intend, as members of our party, to continue voting and
acting like Republicans or Democrats;
Therefore be it resolved that the Libertarian National
Committee hereby censures Assemblyman Moore for his recent
votes in support of tax increases, requests that he return
the $10,000 campaign contribution which the LNC this season
voted to send him, and admonishes him to henceforward be a
better champion of the values held by members of the
political party with which he has chosen to affiliate if he
intends to remain a Libertarian.
