For volume's sake, I sure wouldn't want a Monday K-day as sub delivers instead and not counted towards evaluation. No opinion as to what "right" looks like, just saying that there would seem to be both + and - impacts with this proposal.
It was up for discussion but due to the late hour on Friday, a motion was put on the floor to pass all remaining opposed resolutions from #170 through #375 as a “Block”. It was passed by the Delegation.
It should be noted that this motion was made immediately after a break and many of the delegates had not returned to the hall yet. Many of us were (and are) pretty upset that it passed that way.
I voted against all Block-passes. I feel all Resolutions should be given a chance to be heard. Block-passing does not allow for us to weed out the Resolutions that are ridiculous or could ultimately be harmful to the members. It gives the Board the task of figuring out what we want.
No offense but if they were not on the floor when business was going on the they are the problem! That is unacceptable in my opinion. You know how long the break is and you get back on the floor.
The RRECS block failed because there were bad ones needing to be weeded out. The final block passed because people could not be bothered anymore.
I saw it, i forget where it was but if they pushed it into the RRECS block it failed because people are not willing to go to these for work but as a timeshare vacation obligation.
They both passed. The bad is being included with the good.
One in the last Block looks like what was questioned. Either way, both Blocks passed.
if more states tie their own delegate pay to attendance and on time arrival...people show up. they may not have pre read anything or prepared but, they show up in their seat to avoid losing a session of pay.
It was a quick 10 min break after the Appeals were moved up to be handled midway through the Resolutions and we all missed Dinner. My state only requires AM & PM (after lunch) check-ins. The only Evening check-in we have is Caucus Night.
