[Lnc-business] Candidate Support Committee

[Sam Goldstein]

Dear Nick and Alicia,

I submit the following motion for consideration at the upcoming LNC meeting
on August 19-20. 2017.  I ask for 30 minutes on the agenda for debate and
action on the motion.

Candidate Support Committee



Create a Candidate Support Committee consisting of five LNC members or LNC
alternates and two non-LNC members of the LP.  The LNC members of the
committee are elected by the LNC and the non-LNC members are appointed by
the LNC Chair based on recommendations from the LNC members of the
committee.  The LNC Chair will appoint an Interim Chair of the Candidate
Support Committee until a permanent Chair can be elected by its’ members.


The Candidate Support Committee will develop and maintain a set of LNC
approved criteria to set standards for LP financial contributions to LP
candidates other than President of the United States.  The initial set of
standards  is to be submitted to the LNC for approval no later than the
December 2017 LNC meeting.  Each succeeding Candidate Support Committee
will review the standards and report any needed changes to the LNC for
approval no later than the second LNC meeting of the term.

The Candidate Support Committee will also be responsible for developing a
proposed budget for Candidate Support for each election cycle.


Following the approval by the LNC of the Candidate Support criteria and
budget, the Candidate Support Committee will then be responsible for
administering financial support for Libertarian Party candidates through
each election cycle with a report of its activities and spending to the LNC
no later than the Spring LNC meeting following each General Election.

Thanks and

Live Free,
