Submitted by: Melissa F. Weiner, Johnny Eric Williams, Timothy Black, Ashley Doane, Corey Dolgon, David Embrick, Kasey Henricks, Andrea Miller, Walda Katz-Fishman, and Reuben Roth

All three proposed resolutions will be discussed during the Society’s Business Meeting on Friday, August 7 from 12:00pm-1:00pm (EDT). Thirty minutes will be allocated to a discussion in favor of or in opposition to all proposed resolutions. At this juncture, resolutions cannot be modified. The purpose of the discussion will be to seek clarification or to try to convince others to vote for or against the resolution. That discussion will be moderated by the Vice-President, with the assistance of the Executive Officer. Every effort will be made to allow time for the discussion of each resolution being considered, with equal time to those in support of and those in opposition to each resolution.

Immediately after the Society’s Annual Business Meeting, current members will vote online for or against each resolution, or abstain. To review additional comments given during the SSSP Annual Business Meeting on this resolution, please click here. The voting period will be two weeks.

The final results of the vote shall be reported to the CSA and the BOD, and published as early as possible on the Society’s website.
