Two Proposed 2024 Amendments to the Libertarian Party's Bylaws

The purposes of both suggested amendments are:

• to allow new national convention delegates to learn to do the party's business with relative ease instead of having to memorize a doorstop-sized book if they don't want to get out-maneuvered at every turn by Robert's cultists; and
• to allow national convention business sessions to do an hour's worth of agenda business in an hour to an hour and a half rather than in six hours.
