NOTE: This is a recruitment announcement for the Coordinating Committee 
of the
state party. Please circulate this message on lists in your county that 
reach
potential candidates.

All applications will be posted online. We will circulate an updated 
list of
candidates two weeks before the meeting on Mar. 6-7.

The extended deadline for applications is Feb. 20.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Applicants are needed for the “new” restructured Coordinating Committee
(CC) for the GPCA. Because of the events in Washington and Sacramento,
this is an extraordinary time for Greens to be organizing and carrying
our message to voters. Anyone who wishes to help build the Green Party
is encouraged to apply.

The Coordinating Committee is responsible for coordinating state party
meetings, facilitating internal communications and performing other
administrative tasks such as: implementing policies adopted by the
General Assembly, conducting party business between the state meetings,
and coordinating the other standing committees and working groups of the
state party. Committee members are responsible for participating in a
monthly teleconference (the first Monday of each month from 7:30 to 9:30
p.m.). You will also be asked to serve on one of our committees.

Following the March Plenary, an on-line election will be held for 14 new
At-Large Representatives for the CC. They will serve alongside 12
Regional Representatives. The members of the CC serve for staggered
two-year terms. Because this election will be for all 14 At-Large
Representatives, 7 will be elected to a one-year term and 7 for a
two-year term.

To apply:

Send a brief bio to the Plenary Agenda Team (agenda-team at cagreens.org 
<mailto:agenda-team at cagreens.org>)
by January 29th so it can be included in the packet that is distributed
before the March Plenary. In your bio, please tells us briefly about
your work within the Green Party and what you would like to work on as a
member of the CC.

You should also plan to attend the Plenary (March 6th and 7th) in San
Jose and be prepared to give a 1 to 2 minute statement to delegates why you
should be elected to serve on the CC.

If you have any questions, please contact:
