  • Motion No. 813

Title: Motion to Approve Expenditures for 2024 Convention

Mover: Patrick Leistner

Motion: I move to approve the expenditure of the following funds towards the venue and entertainment of the 2024 Convention:

 

$1,000.00 – Non Refundable Initial Deposit to the Southbank Hotel Jacksonville Riverwalk to lock in the contract with the venue

 

$2,750.00 – Speaker travel arrangements, speaker fees, and accommodations for the following speakers:  Gene Epstein; Angela McArdle; Caryn Ann Harlos

 

$3,750.00 – Total

 

Rationale: This motion was not passed by the Convention Committee but all of it has been discussed and I believe it is the desire of the committee to bring in the above speakers.

 

$1,000.00   – Gene is the organizer and moderator of The SOHO Forum, economist, author, and contributor to many libertarian publications.  We plan to have him host a Presidential debate            between the candidates for LP’s nomination, as well as give a keynote speech.

 

$1,000.00 –  Angela is the chair of the LNC.  We plan to have her give a state of the party address.

 

$750.00 – Caryn Ann is the Secretary of the LNC and podcast host of Pink Flame of Liberty.  We plan to use her skills as our parliamentarian as well as have her give a presentation.

 

$2,750.00 Total.
