Resolution Submitted by Art Perlo, Connecticut District

Whereas:

Basic information about our membership is an essential tool for evaluating our policies, our work, and the work of our national and state/district organizations,

Therefore be it Resolved:

• State/district organizations, and those responsible for unorganized areas, shall report annually on the status of the Party in their area. The overall status of the Party nationally shall then be reported to the National Committee each year.

• Reports should include the best estimate of the number of members who paid dues, who attended club or Party meetings or events, who joined in the previous year, who have been in the Party less than four years, who left the Party the previous year and why, and racial, national, gender and age composition.

• Reports may also include additional membership information and information on the organizational status and political work of the Party in each area.

• The National Committee or its bodies shall designate one of the officers to be responsible for this work.
