<DIV><U>Co-Sponsors:</U> Dan Wiener, Vicki Kirkland, Tim Hagan, Guy
McLendon<BR></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV><U>Motion:</U> <BR>Whereas, the Bylaws of the Libertarian
Party state that “delegates to a Regular Convention shall be selected by a
method adopted by each affiliate party” (Article 11, 3 (b)),
and<BR><BR>Whereas, the Bylaws of the Libertarian Party state that “each
state-level affiliate party shall, in accordance with its own Bylaws and these
Bylaws, determine who shall be its delegates to all Regular Conventions.”
(Article 6, 3), and<BR><BR>Whereas, the Bylaws of the Libertarian Party state
that “the autonomy of the affiliate and sub-affiliate parties shall not be
abridged by the National Committee or any other committee of the Party…”
(Article 6, 5), and<BR><BR>Whereas, a dispute over the Oregon delegation was
placed before the Credentials Committee, which subsequently presented a report
to the Libertarian Party National Convention on June 27, 2014 which did not
describe the details of that dispute, and<BR><BR>Whereas, a motion was made to
amend the Credentials Committee report to include three individuals as
delegates within the Oregon delegation, and<BR><BR>Whereas, in response to a
Point of Order the Chair of the National Convention ruled that the proposed
amendment was in order, the Chair’s ruling was appealed, the Chair’s ruling
was sustained by a vote of the assembly, and the assembly subsequently
approved the amendment, and<BR><BR>Whereas, the 11th edition of Robert’s Rules
of Order Newly Revised, which is the Parliamentary Authority for the
Libertarian Party as stated in Article 16 of its Bylaws, states (p. 483) that
“In any event, no action of the board can alter or conflict with any decision
made by the assembly of the society, and any such action of the board is null
and void (see p. 577, II. 23-33).”, and<BR><BR>Whereas, the Libertarian
National Committee nevertheless regrets the situation wherein some delegates
believe the above decision was incorrectly decided, therefore<BR><BR>Be it
resolved that it is the sense of the Libertarian National Committee that it
wishes to convey those regrets to the Libertarian Party of
Oregon.<BR><BR><BR></DIV>
