at a General Assembly, or by the Coordinating Committee, should be recognize as a member of the Green Party. We should also relax the criteria, so that the counties, GA, or CC, decide why they are recognizing an undocumented or disenfranchised person as a
member – for example because of their volunteer work for the Party (instead of having convoluted bureaucratic pretzel-like rules about it).<br>

for including them on decision making. The council is very important to getting stuff done in Butte. The council is the party. We announce plenariea and may be get the council plus one or two more. That's just our reality. <o:p></o:p></p>
