Delegate Body Meeting Updates

The Delegate Body had its monthly meeting on May 10th. Here are the highlights:

  • The Delegate Body passed Resolution #24

    • Resolution #24, titled Appointing Conveners, follows up on the structural reorganization outlined in Resolution #23. All 9 applicants were unanimously selected by The Delegate Body to convene the committees of their choice.

    • The responsibilities of Conveners are outlined in Section 5 of Resolution #23 and Section 3 of Resolution #24. All resolutions are available in the shared Proton Drive for all IJLB members.

  • The Delegate Body voted unanimously to move our official shared document drive to Proton.

  • The Delegate Body voted with 6 votes in favor and one abstention to sign onto the “Jewish Communities Statement Against the US/Israel War On Iran.”

    • This forgoes the earlier decision by The Delegate Body to draft an independent statement on the topic.

    • The Delegate Body also encourages individual bundists and chapters to sign on to the statement.

    • The Delegate Body voted to sign onto the statement as the IJLB instead as The Delegate Body of the IJLB with 4 votes in favor, 1 vote opposed, and 2 abstentions.

For a full record of the meeting, please check the Proton Drive for the meeting notes.
