For those of you who do not subscribe to NASW-Talk, there has been much discussion of the proposed bylaw revisions. That discussion led members to carry out a successful petition drive to change the available choices about bylaw revisions to be considered at the February 20 special meeting in San Diego. If you have already submitted your proxy online, you will need to VOTE AGAIN as we have cleared the system.
The new resolution gives members three choices rather than two, with the new choice a compromise to reflect concern with Article VIII, on Suspension and Expulsion. We apologize for any added inconvenience, but believe this ballot will lead to the best possible bylaws. It is only the resolution that has changed. No text of the proposed bylaws, as presented on January 5, has changed.
