don't miss second part of the rescind motion
I keep hearing people say that my motion would "put us back to square 1," which didn't make sense to me. Some that I have talked to today are completely unaware of the second sentence in my motion. It's NOT just a motion to rescind. It chooses a location and a date instead. So I'm re-posting it in all its glory, and please don't stop reading before the second sentence. This is what we are currently voting on, with the vote ending on Wednesday night: "Motion: Rescind in its entirety the motion adopted during the May 9, 2020 LNC meeting, which called for a convention to begin on May 22, 2020 with business conducted online. Instead, in accordance with Bylaw Article 10.1, the LNC calls an in-person convention to occur during the dates of July 8-12, 2020 at Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, Florida. " I'm not sure how this confusion happened. Whatever the reason, wanted to clear that up. -Alicia
Inquiry: Can you rescind and propose a new motion at the same time? That feels like a motion to reconsider something previously adopted but I'm not expert.

I believe those of us saying it were referring to square one as before the compromise. I can see the confusion though, my apologies.

Yes, one may do both at the same time. It's just a particular styling of an amendment, and we do it all the time. It's similar to a strike-out-and-insert in which all the existing text is struck, or similar to a substitute motion. However the amendment is styled, it's just replacing language A with language B. As I noted a few days ago, Rescind and Amend Something Previously Adopted are two forms of the same motion. -Alicia On Sun, May 17, 2020 at 7:16 AM Richard Longstreth via Lnc-business < lnc-business@hq.lp.org> wrote:
