The Bylaws Team and those who have submitted motions to Assembly will be available to answer Representatives' questions.
"Budget Q & A / Input Session" ZOOM Sessions
All Representatives are encouraged to participate in one of the pre-Assembly Budget Q&A sessions. We want to answer your questions and hear your valuable input in advance. This will save time at Assembly and allow for a more thoughtful process. Input from these sessions will be taken into consideration when creating the final proposal, which will be voted on at Assembly. All registered Representatives will receive an email with instructions on how to participate.
