National committee meetings. |
|
Shoot out in Salt Lake! PLEDGE versus Committee for a Libertarian |

Majority. Will the party's membership and platform definitions change? |

Is compromise possible? The Platform and Bylaws committees are |
|
responsible for making recommendations to the convention concerning |
|
changes in those documents. At this convention, the party will only |
|
consider deletions to the platform. The Convention Rules would have to |
|
be amended by a 2/3 vote to change this rule. |
