[CONGRESS] UNL Congress Report - April 27, 2010

Day 889, 07:03 Published in Netherlands Netherlands by UNL Congress
Introduction

A special warm welcome to all newly elected congress members (and of course also welcome to all who are re-elected). A call to all congress members: please shout this article in your shoutbox to inform all congress members and interested citizens. After all, it’s the official communication of the Congress.

Note that when you are a congress member, you can volunteer to become Chairman. A topic has been raised here: [url] http://www.enetherlands.nl/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=5445[/url]. Trust me: you don’t want me on a second term, so make sure to volunteer today!

Highlights of the last few days were two constitutional changes: one to formally capture the procedure of changing the constitution, and one that will change UNL with the newly accepted president chosen government.

Congress members: At least make sure to scroll down to the "pending votes" and vote there! An active Congress is a requirement for a true democracy.
