>Background: <p>At the GPUS Steering Committee meeting in Washington, D.C. on
>September 18-19, the SC held discussions on many timely and important
>subjects currently facing the Green Party of the United States.  The
>Steering committee is recommending the formation of 2 working groups
>to address several of these challenges and help provide thoughtful
>direction for the future of our party.  What follows below, and in a
>concurrent proposal, are the recommendations of the SC for action by
>the GPUS Coordinating Committee.</p>
>
><p>One of these challenges is finding a way to utilize our experience
>from the 2004 GPUS National Nominating Convention, the process leading
>to it and our experience as a party since.  We will have to go through
>this process again in 2007 / 2008 and many feel beginning a process of
>evaluation and future recommendations will help us craft the most
>grassroots, democratic and inclusive process for future national
>nomination and exploratory processes.</p>
>
><p>The GPUS Steering Committee feels the best way to benefit from the
>experiences of 2003/2004 and begin planning for future national
>nominating processes is a working group to review the 2004
>presidential exploratory process, national nominating process and
>nominating convention and compile the lessons and recommendations the
>National Committee, and other GPUS committees, can use to prepare for
>2007/2008.</p>
>
>Proposal: <p>The Green Party of the United 
>States shall form a working group to
>review the 2004 presidential exploratory process, national nominating
>process and nominating convention and compile the lessons and
>recommendations the National Committee, and other GPUS committees, can
>use to prepare for 2007/2008.</p>
><p>The working group shall consist of:<br>
>ï 1 member appointed by each of 5 national committees: AC /
>Credentials / BRPP / PCSC / ANMC.  The nominees do not have to be
>members currently serving on the committee, but should have been
>active during period beginning 1/1/04 and ending 6/30/04.<br>
>ï Up to one person appointed by each state party, network and caucus
>Nominations will be due to the Steering Committee from states,
>caucuses, networks and committees no later than January 31, 2005.  The
>Steering Committee shall record and announce the working group members
>no later than February 7, 2005.  This resolution requests the working
>group provide the SC a preliminary report by April 15, 2005 and
>provide the National Committee a final report and list of
>recommendations no later than June 1, 2005.</p>
>
>Resources: <p>TIME LINE: Committee Nominations 
>by 1/31/05, members announced by
>2/7/05, preliminary report to SC by 4/15/05 and final report to
>National Committee by 6/1/05.</p>
