Debra Smith-Shank presided over other business that included topics pertaining to all Issues Groups. publication of a membership directory, and development of the group’s website. A major portion of the business meeting was devoted to the proposed by-law/name change circulated in writing to all members with the mailed notice of the 2004 annual meeting.
Joyce Centofanti moved that the group’s name be changed from the LGBT Issues Caucus to the Queer Issues Caucus as proposed -- a motion then seconded by Jim Sanders. After a lengthy discussion in which more than a dozen members spoke for and against the change, Sanders called the question. By written ballot, the ammendment passed with 16 members voting for the name change and 14 members opposing the change. In response to the narrow margin, Kimberly Cosier made a motion that formal enactment of the name change be delayed to allow for a continuation of dialogue – Sanders seconded the motion, which passed.
The proposed 2004-04 slate of LGBTIC officers was accepted by acclamation after a motion made by R. Steven Sutton and a second by Lou VanderHave.
With no time remaining or business to conduct, the meeting was adjourned at 5:50 p.m.

2004 Financial Report of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues Caucus
Jessie – this is where you need to record formally, that which you presented orally during the meeting. Same thing is needed for the 2003 annual meeting. See 2001 and 2002 on our still-in process webpage. Thanks.
