SUBJECT: Motion
SENT: Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested

Enclosed please find a Motion, passed by the State Directors and National Leadership Ad Hoc Committee on Saturday, May 19, 2007 by unanimous vote of 13 of the members.

Motion:
Resolved May 19, 2007 by the State Directors and National Leadership Ad Hoc Committee

Whereas; the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps Deputy Executive Director was directed to contact the State Directors on a regular basis

And

Whereas; in the course of fulfilling the directive, many questions arose and requests for a national meeting to discuss problems was overwhelmingly asked for by the State Directors. Therefore a meeting was scheduled at a time and place thought to be convenient for Chris Simcox; this meeting was offered in good faith with a goal of resolving these important issues including managerial misconduct, in confidence and minimizing the turmoil within the organization

And

Whereas; Chris Simcox responded to the proposed meeting with the attached letter which threatens the very existence of the organization at a time in our nation’s history when it is vital for all citizens to work to secure our borders and prevent amnesty.

We therefore move, and resolve that we have lost confidence in Chris Simcox’s ability to lead Minuteman Civil Defense Corps.

We move that Mr. Simcox reinstate the unjustly terminated Minutemen immediately, and restore them to the positions they held.

Mr. Simcox shall be given through May 24, 2007 to schedule a meeting for all State Directors, to be held no later than 10 June 2007. At which the issues enumerated in the attached letter sent to Mr. Simcox on May 8, 2007 will be discussed and resolved.

In addition a business plan will be developed at this meeting that will provide the volunteers an effective voice in the direction and leadership of MCDC. The plan must include a Leadership Council, or Board of National Leaders and State Directors which will, from that date forward provide input and oversight into the organization in an effort to end the one man rule MCDC currently operates under. All expenses incurred by the state directors to attend this meeting will be reimbursed by MCDC.

Failure to respond to this motion by May 25, 2007 will result in the entire matter being turned over to the national media for their investigation.

Passed by a unanimous vote of 13 ad hoc committee members:

Please contact Bob Wright if you have any questions or comments.
