[Lpk-execomm] A Bylaw to remove at the next meeting

[Ken Moellman]

This has been discussed before, but now it becomes urgent. 

Bylaw 900.6.8 was created by the Executive Committee in September 2017. 
It specifically limits the rights of members, in convention, to decide
when a change to the Constitution takes effect. 

Similar language existed in the Constitution until Annual Convention
2017, where it was removed by the convention body.  That language caused
catch-22s, and that's why it was removed. 

I would like to restore the convention body's ability to decide when a
provision takes effect, as is the default under RONR.  To do so, we need
to delete Bylaw 900.6.8. 

This was agreed upon by the Rules Committee in August 2018, at the
in-person meeting; however, it was never presented to the Executive
Committee due to an apparent oversight. 

Therefore, I will be moving to replace this language: 

900.6.8        Any amendments proposed or passed at convention, to the
Constitution of the Libertarian Party of Kentucky, shall not take effect
until the moment the Convention adjourns. 

With this language: 

900.6.8        This section is unused. 

I know that there's reluctance to change the rules at this point;
however, this expands the powers of the members in convention, which the
convention body in 2017 had given itself and the EC took away only
months later.
