What is the deadline for submitting proposed amendments to the national bylaws?

The deadline for submitting proposed amendments to the national bylaws is April 1. This date is significant as it allows sufficient time for the proposed amendments to be reviewed and processed before the national conference. The structured timeline ensures that all proposals are considered thoroughly and that members have the opportunity to discuss and vote on these important changes.

In the context of the overall governance of the organization, establishing a clear deadline helps maintain organizational order and allows proper preparation for potential changes in the bylaws, ensuring that all members are informed and involved in the process.
