I know that, generally, the GPUS aims for gender balance among committee and Caucus co-chairs (although that target gets a little bit more complex when you're dealing with gender diversity in a non-binary world; the usual simplification is no more than one
cisgender male); I think this should be a goal of every committee, with a specified tolerance for deviation from absolute balance for the sake of flexibility, and to incorporate non-binary identities while still achieving "balance" (so that an eight member
committee with a non-binary individual and three cisgender men could be considered balanced, as well as one with a non-binary person and three cisgender women, for example).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">FYI, the way the GPUS Platcom handles this is dynamically setting quorum based on "active membership" (responses to quorum calls and posts to the mailing list). That prevents inactive members from impairing the committees ability to get
things done, while imposing a minimal set of expectations for engagement, and letting people tune in and out as they feel able. Is there an obstacle within our bylaws to adopting an approach like this?<o:p></o:p></p>

exists to do work. This is a simple solution. Also in this proposal is clarification for meetings that are regularly scheduled don't require notice. This is because the problem has been noted as people not being in meetings and having an unrealistic quorum

And bear in mind that if a committee makes poor decisions, those can be overruled by the GA/SGA, so a 2/3rds supermajority is not needed for specialized committees.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">This proposal has been brought forth because in recent years a number of standing committees of the Green Party of California (GPCA) have been unable to conduct any business for
lengthy periods of time due to failure to reach quorum. This state of affairs has often impeded the GPCA Coordinating Committee (CC) from fulfilling its own responsibilities per GPCA Bylaw 8-1.7 (“Request and receive reports from Committees and Working Groups,
refer matters to them, and monitor and assist their work”). GPCA standing committees are capped, for gender balance, at an even number of members, and currently establish quorum at a majority of voting members. This proposed amendment would establish the
minimum quorum at least 50% of standing committees’ voting membership. <o:p></o:p></p>

committees that establish regular meeting schedules. In practice, most if not all standing committees establish regular meeting schedules for their work year. The proposed language would make explicit that two weeks’ notice is required for meetings that
fall outside a standing committee’s regular meeting schedule, should one be set.<o:p></o:p></p>
