To that end, I would wish that my proposal on transparency would get some
input and attention. I want to empower committees. We need a procedure in
place to maintain the same level of transparency as when the LNC does it.
Joshua and I support a Candidate Support Committee as Chair Sarwark
suggested. I will not support that without some broad transparency rules.
