MEMORANDUM

TO: DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee Members

FROM: Alexis Herman & Jim Roosevelt, Jr., Co-Chairs

DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee (RBC)

SUBJECT: Meeting Announcement–May 31, 2008

DATE: April 25, 2008

Realizing that members have very busy schedules, we wanted to notify you as soon as possible that the RBC will meet on Saturday, May 31, 2008 in Washington, D.C. We are asking members to arrive on Friday, May 30, 2008 in time for a private informal dinner with us. While we expect the RBC meeting to last most of the day on Saturday, we are asking members not to make their departure plans until Sunday.

The main item of business on the Committee’s agenda will be the consideration of two pending challenges.

We hope you are able to attend this very important RBC meeting. Further information, including meeting agenda and meeting logistics, will be forwarded to you in the near future.

Please note that this is an official meeting of the RBC. Therefore, we would like to remind members of the attendance requirement established in the Bylaws (Article Two, Section 10.(g)). Members who miss three consecutive RBC meetings are deemed to have resigned from the Committee. Registering a proxy, while important for establishing a quorum and assuring your vote is represented, does not count for the purpose of attendance at a meeting.

In the meantime, should you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact either of us directly. You may also contact staff in the DNC Office of Party Affairs and Delegate Selection – Patrice Taylor at 202/863-8046 or via email at taylorp@dnc.org, or Alecia Dyer at 202/863-8055 or via e-mail at dyera@dnc.org.

As always, thank you for your time and effort as a member of this Committee. We look forward to seeing you on May 31, 2008.

I showed up at my voting place on the date my State of Michigan told me to. I voted in the primary for the candidate of my choice. I think I live in a democracy and I expect my vote to count.
