The arguments made here are my reason for opposing the clawback notion.
I'm not talking about your disclosure. Staff and/or the chair should be
informing the board of these sorts of transactions and seeking affirmative
approval from the board, with those involved in the transaction
abstaining. The issues here are raised when staff makes available to a
board member, on a discretionary basis, an opportunity not available to
similarly situated board members (i.e. this doesn't extend to the chair,
for multiple reasons, but one of them is that none of us are similarly
situated). That creates the potential for conflict.
I acknowledge that the ED and chair knew. Everyone knew, apparently,
except the board. Conflicted transactions require authorization of the
disinterested board members, with full disclosure, and that's what wasn't
done. That also wasn't your job to do. It should have been presented to
us by staff. I'm not talking about your potential conflict of interest
report, I'm talking about the transaction itself.
I'm not terribly interested in recriminations, though. What I am
interested in is, moving forward, understanding this norm and applying it
to such transactions, and everyone involved seeing the potential for
conflicts here.

Considering I disclosed pennies on a steemit video this certainly
is
not some grand omission. When I am given official sanction to do
something by the Party - and everything is approved by Chair or
Treasurer - it isn’t something that is a conflict which is to
disclose
unknown or potentially unknown things. The Party asked me. It
is on
financial statements. The Chair and Treasurer were aware. I
openly
talked about it on Facebook.

Wes, here's my feedback, and I don't mind saying that I was
shocked
to read that an LNC member is being reimbursed to attend
state
conventions within their own region.
Dear LNC,
Caryn Ann Harlos has recruited a lot of dues-paying
members by
attending state conventions and getting people to join
or
renew.
At first, she did this at state conventions she was
attending
in her
region at her own expense.
I've no problem with this. LNC representatives often attend
state
conventions within their own region, and if she works to
boost
national membership while there, that's cool.<<<
Her results were so strong that I asked her if she would
be
willing
to go to some other states outside of her region to do
similar
fundraising efforts if her travel expenses were
reimbursed.
< This is something that should have been told to the LNC,
and
even
discussed. Why are we only finding this out, after someone
inquired? Where's the transparency?<<<
We have been struggling to keep membership from falling.
We
send
renewal emails and renewal letters that perform
reasonably
well
but
pretty much exhaust that method. Other methods we try
have
very
low
ROI. Caryn Ann's ROI has been comparatively strong.
Caryn Ann attended the Washington State convention last
weekend
and
recruited 18 to 20 dues-paying members for the national
LP.
That trip is one in which we have reimbursed her for her
travel.
I have a problem with this. Many LNC Regional
Representatives
will attend state conventions within their region. If any of
them
do membership recruiting for national while there, that's
something
they choose to do. Are you suggesting that Caryn Ann
wouldn't
have
tried to boost membership at a state convention within her
region,
if she wasn't reimbursed? Because, I doubt that. This was
something she was doing as she chose to do, while attending
conventions within her own region. This isn't something that
an
LNC
member should be reimbursed for. <<<
I'd like to send Caryn Ann to more state conventions to
have
her do
this work. No one else has done this as successfully as
Caryn
Ann.
Caryn Ann is a volunteer so we don't pay her for her
time.
Wes, you don't know what others have done regarding
recruiting,
as
most people do it as a normal part of being in the LP. I,
nor
most
others, keep a log of the people we've gotten to join the LP,
as I
see it as a given this is done.<<<
Wes, do you know why my own state affiliate has let national
membership drop? Because, they're unhappy with the national
LP. At
my last state convention, our officers said that they want
people to
keep state memberships current, but national doesn't do
anything for
them, so they don't care much about that. I had to mention
that our
delegate count is tied to national membership, and since
then,
I
followed -up on that, but our numbers still have dropped.
I've
been
thinking of a way to reverse that, but if LPIN is successful
in
reversing that trend, it's because our volunteers are
passionate
about the LP and liberty actions. Not because anyone is
being
reimbursed for the expenses of travel and time. (My state
isn't the
only one that feels this way, btw)<<<
For conventions that Caryn Ann is unable to take the
time
to
attend,
I will be sending our staff member Jess Mears. The thing
with
Jess
is that we pay her for her hours to travel, attend, and
return
from
state conventions. She's unlikely to get as high of a
ROI.
I personally wouldn't send anyone to state conventions to
boost
national membership, if the national LP is paying for it.
Instead,
we should work to create a better LP that's responsive to
it's
members and the public, and we grow through people seeking to
join
us. Organic growth.<<<
I received a complaint today that it is inappropriate
for
someone
running for a position on the LNC to have travel
reimbursed.
I sympathize with the complaint, but do not think it's a
violation
of our policies.
It's a matter of principal. Byreimbursing Caryn Ann Harlos
for
traveling to state conventions within her own region, the LP
is
subsidizing her efforts as a regional representative. This is
inappropriate.<<<
Nevertheless, I bring this up to the LNC for your
feedback. If
you
request a stop to sending Caryn Ann Harlos or any other
LNC
member
to state conventions for the purpose of recruiting
dues-paying
members, we can end the program.
Yes, I'm requesting a stop to reimbursing LNC members for
travel to
state conventions within their own region. I also am
requesting
that Caryn Ann repay the LP for the reimbursement costs of
any
state
conventions she attended within her region.
As for "sending her" to other state conventions, this should
be
discussed by the LNC.<<<
A reasonable question might be, "I'm willing to go to
state
convention at the expense of the LNC and recruit
members--why
don't
you send me?" The answer is that Caryn Ann proved her
willingness
and capability within her own region. No other LNC
members
have
mailed us several envelopes of dues-paying members from
their
states. Caryn Ann and Jess Mears together are not able
to
attend
every state convention. If you are interested in
helping,
and
willing to prove your ability first at a state in your
region
or at
another state at your own expense, let me know and we
might be
able
to try that. And then we can report the results.
Wes, I know a woman who renewed her membership due to a FB
post
that Andy Craig made. (She publicly wrote that he's the
reason
she
renewed) I'd wager that Andy is responsible for quite a
number of
people renewing or joining the LP. As Andy's an excellent
advocate
for the cause that is the LP. If you want to find someone
who's out
there building up hope in the LP, and getting people on
board,
he's
the one. You probably don't know this stuff, as Andy doesn't
seek
to be recognized for his efforts, he probably sees it as
normal
for
people who support the LP.
Nor, do I know of others within the LP who keep track of how
many
people they've recruited. So, your statement asking people
to
"prove your ability", is moot.<<<

Caryn
Ann.
Caryn Ann is a volunteer so we don't pay her for her
time.
For conventions that Caryn Ann is unable to take the
time
to
attend,
I will be sending our staff member Jess Mears. The thing
with
Jess
is that we pay her for her hours to travel, attend, and
return
from
state conventions. She's unlikely to get as high of a
ROI.
I received a complaint today that it is inappropriate
for
someone
running for a position on the LNC to have travel
reimbursed.
I sympathize with the complaint, but do not think it's a
violation
of our policies.
Nevertheless, I bring this up to the LNC for your
feedback. If
you
request a stop to sending Caryn Ann Harlos or any other
LNC
member
to state conventions for the purpose of recruiting
dues-paying
members, we can end the program.
A reasonable question might be, "I'm willing to go to
state
convention at the expense of the LNC and recruit
members--why
don't
you send me?" The answer is that Caryn Ann proved her
willingness
and capability within her own region. No other LNC
members
have
mailed us several envelopes of dues-paying members from
their
states. Cary[2]n Ann and Jess Mears together are not
able
to
attend
every state convention. If you are interested in
helping,
and
willing to prove your ability first at a state in your
region
or at
another state at your own expense, let me know and we
might be
able
to try that. And then we can report the results.
Below is a report from Robert Kraus with some of the
fundraising
results from Caryn Ann.
I welcome your feedback.

Subject: Harlos Fundraising
Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2018 11:27:47 -0500
From: Robert S. Kraus [4]<[7][7][9]robert.kraus at lp.org>
To: Wes Benedict [5]<[8][8][10]wes.benedict at lp.org>
I have [9]Harlos pegged as solicitor for a total of $2,335.00
for 82
members 49 of which where new (these 82 folks have also
contributed
a
net total excluding conv related gifts of $6,261.74 since
2016
convention - bunch of them to Hist Preservation of course so
she has
her
fans)
In addition she is likely 95% responsible for the $12,120
raised for
Historic Preservation
Finally she has given $2181 herself since the 2016 convention
(non
convention related - however $1525 was for Hist Preservation)
