The following Motion has been made and seconded.
Please click here to discuss or vote on the motion.

I move that the words “between the ages of sixteen and eighteen” be removed from ARTICLE II — MEMBERSHIP, Section 1, which currently reads: “Eligibility for membership: Application for voting membership shall be open to registered voters in Nevada’s Second Congressional District, and on a restricted basis to prospective voters in the district between the ages of sixteen and eighteen. Membership is granted free of charge after registration online at Nevada Vote Direct.”

And, in ARTICLE II — MEMBERSHIP, Section 2, the sentence that currently reads, “Restricted members may not vote on pending legislation.” shall be amended to read: “Restricted members may vote on pending legislation, but their votes shall be recorded separately, and shall not be binding on Mr. Rosen’s votes in Congress.”
