[Lnc-business] Dec Meeting

[Brett Bittner]

Caryn Ann,

I get similar feedback from both members and those who aren't members yet.
;-)

When I mention that I'm committed to the business of the Party to fly all
over the country to perform it on my own dime, the only response is one of
respect for that commitment. My mother has mentioned to me several times
that I MUST be crazy, and she makes the effort to find out my LNC travel
schedule to help me get the most for my money. She's transferred Southwest
Rapid Rewards points and hotel loyalty rewards that she's earned to reduce
that liability. Last term, Dr. Feldman and I did not accept the funds that
the LPIN sets aside for our Region Reps and Alternates to travel to these
meetings.

I've found that Robert does a terrific job negotiating the best rates for
our group, and I appreciate that he does so.

Our job is to provide governance for the Party, not micro-manage every
decision or penny spent.

I'm looking forward to our next meeting in Alexandria,

Brett C. Bittner

Region 3 Representative
Libertarian National Committee <http://lp.org/>
