| Comment: | Brett, you may want to read the LCRCC By-Laws and the Constitution! Your statement, “The LCRCC Constitution has the central committee elect four officers with specific duties, for the purpose of leading the work of the committee.” is not the truth!
Nowhere in the LCRCC By-Laws and the Constitution documents does it state that the executive lead or direct the body! Now that you are elected you may want to actually read these documents berfore you reference them! ! !
I recommend that you reference section “VI. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE” of the “BY-LAWS OF THE LINN COUNTY REPUBLICAN CENTRAL COMMITTEE” you should find it states “… The Executive Committee shall transact the routine business of the Central Committee during the interim of the meetings of the Central Committee. Any business transacted or action taken shall be reported to the Central Committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting.”
To help you out a little more, the CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OF LINN COUNTY, Amended March 11, 2006 states, “… The Executive Committee shall transact the routine business of the Linn County Central Committee during the interim of the meetings of the Linn County Central Committee. Any business transacted or action taken shall be reported to the Linn County Central Committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting. The Executive Committee is subject to the orders of the Linn County Central Committee, and none of its acts shall conflict with actions of the Linn County Central Committee.”
Now Brett, I hope you will follow the by-laws and the constitution.

| Comment: | You've indicated that the new Executive Board thinks the members of the Committee may be Seen and Not Heard and Do what they are told. I disagree. The LCRCC Constitution has the central committee elect four officers with specific duties, for the purpose of leading the work of the committee. The Bylaws declare the duties of each. The LCRCC Constitution also shows hte manner inwhich committees are organized to implement the work, as led by the executive officer, as elected by the central committee. And then on an ongoing basis, the central commitee guides and directs by the way of making motions and voting diirection. Thus the committee steers the organization. And, if the executive officer or any elected leader should stray too far from the lead of the committee, there is a replacment process setup as well. I would encourage the committee to lead through the avenues as indicated in the governing documents. Frankly, this is how I was elected to my current role. |
