Johan's Vision for Parli
Below are all of the constitutional responsibilities of the parliamentarian. Of course, I'll do these.
But I'll also bring the MassJCL's governmental processes out from behind closed doors and increase transparency by ....
Bringing the Forum to the People
Johan's Vision
Responsibility
Johan's Vision
Overseeing MassJCL
Elections
I'll encourage candidates to run and create a candidacy application form at least two months before the election.
Amending the Constitution
I'll present all constitutional amendments to the Executive Board. If they're approved, I'll manage the process for their ratification by MassJCL members during the State Convention.
Facilitate Members Running for National Office
I'll create and application for members wishing to run for national office in advance of the NJCL deadline.
Navigate States of Emergency
If there's no one running for a MassJCL office or if one becomes vacant, I'll preside over the "state of emergency" and make sure it gets filled in accordance with the MassJCL Constitution.
Knowlegde of the MassJCL Constitution and Parliamentary Procedure
I will become an expert on the MassJCL Constitution and parliamentary procedure. I may even get a discreet tattoo with Robert's Rules of Orders.
