[nfbmi-talk] another resolution

[joe harcz Comcast]

Doesn't our constitution state that the ultimate authority for policy 
direction is the convention assembled and expressed through its resolutions?

By the way does anyone have an accessible copy of NFB MI's constitution?

Hi Mark,

I hope this comes up during our leadership seminar.  We need to learn to
empower each other to do things that need doing.  This is an important thing
for our organization to do together.

Warmest Regards,

Fred
