YOU Get to Create the Party Platform
This is your only chance to strongly affect the party platform. The resolutions that are accepted at each caucus are used to created the party platform for each level of the party up to the national level.
Take Your Resolutions in Writing
It is very important that you take multiple copies of your resolutions to the caucus in writing. Think about what you wish for and put it clearly in writing ahead of time.
Uniformity of Resolutions
Picture thousands of caucuses turning in many thousands of resolutions each with slightly different wording. This makes it VERY difficult for the platform committees to translate them all into uniform language that conveys the general idea. A lot of good ideas get weeded out in this process. Using the resolutions presented here helps resolve that problem.
Common Resolutions
Most of the time, people are not prepared ahead of time and great resolutions are only submitted in a single caucus. Thus they tend to die at the local level. Had others known about the resolutions, they could have been submitted around the country and become part of the party platform.
Causcus Kit is the Solution
To make sure that resolutions are uniform and widely submitted Caucus Kit has been created. It is composed of common resolutions submitted in past caucuses. The Caucus Kit is a PDF summary for you to print many copies for everyone to peruse.
