Motion 849: LPF Requests Region 2 Representative Oppose the Punishment of LNC Secretary Caryn Ann Harlos

Mover: Joe Hannoush

Motion Language:

I move to request that Region 2 Representative Jonathan McGee vote ‘No’ on any motions at the upcoming Libertarian National Committee (LNC) meeting that seek to impose disciplinary action against Secretary Caryn Ann Harlos. Secretary Harlos has been performing her fiduciary duties as a duly elected Officer of the LNC, including placing the Presidential & Vice Presidential ticket on the ballot, and addressing other items previously ruled on by the Judicial Committee. As she has already been investigated, charged, tried, and cleared of any wrongdoing, further actions by the LNC are an inefficient use of time and resources.

Rationale:

Secretary Caryn Ann Harlos has already undergone an investigation and legal proceedings, during which it was ruled that she did not deserve punishment. Repetitive actions by the LNC would not serve the best interests of the Party and waste valuable time and resources.
