The ACA World Service Organization has published a Ballot of Proposals which are being put before the worldwide fellowship for a vote to determine whether the issue will be placed on the agenda of the Annual Business Conference in May.
Each meeting group may vote once on each of the 13 proposals. The choices are ‘agree’, ‘disagree’, or ‘no opinion.’
Members of our group will have an opportunity to comment on each proposal. The comment period will be until March 7th. Next, each member will have an opportunity to vote on each proposal until March 14th. The outcome of the vote offers a strong indication of the group conscience, which will become final after group discussions.
With a tally in hand, our membership will have a chance to discuss, in an after meeting breakout room, the merits of the proposals and, in particular, any confusion of the issues or close-decisions in the voting results. This discussion could also clarify, for our delegate to the Conference, the opinions of our group.
The following posts are this year’s proposals. Additionally, here are the links to town hall discussions, hosted by the WSO Ballot Prep Committee, as the links become available.
