The Bylaws Revision Committee (BRC) has completed a first draft revision
of Section 7 of Article XI. State Projects.
Section 7. State Coordinators and Assistant State Coordinators
are subject to removal for valid cause; by vote of the Advisory Board,
or by majority vote of the Local Coordinators within the state
subsequent to a recall petition submitted to and approved by the
Advisory Board.

The current version of Article XII, Section 9 (I think), says that the SC
can be removed with a 2/3rds vote of the state volunteers, with 75%
voting.
This is a radical change, going from 2/3rds to a majority vote. I guess
since the recall failed in Georgia, it was decided to make it easier to
remove an SC you are mad at.
Look out, Tim!
Let's get on with the voting on the bylaws. I have my NO vote ready.
