General Meeting

Wednesday, February 19

AGENDA

"What the Labor

Movement Needs to Do to Survive and Grow."

Discussion and decision on Directions Committee and

Steering Committee proposal to establish a bimonthly
meeting schedule.

The proposal is to increase the frequency of general
meetings, in effect giving the general membership

more decision-making authority. At present there are
only three general meetings each year. The Steering
Committee suggests increasing these to six, on a bi-
monthly basis. It is also proposed to try to provide
special speakers, films or discussions at each meet-

ing. Moet Caahinas Wee yt Far Ares

3. Discussion and decision on Steering Committee proposal

to reduce the number of seats and meetings of the Steering
Committee.

IB)

The proposal is to reduce the number of seats on the
Steering Committee to seven (including all elected
officers) from eleven (the current number). In addi-
tion to seven regular Steering Committee members, two
alternates would be elected, to fill in for members
who are unable to make a meeting. The Steering Com-
mittee will meet bimonthly, during months when there
is no general meeting (this assumes approval of the

previous proposal increasing the frequency of general
meetings).
