 +
[9:04pm] Pirate_Joe: Please post up the agenda for tonight?
 +
[9:05pm] Sayyida: The new agenda site has been a sticky thing and I was hoping we could use something else
 +
[9:05pm] Pirate_Joe: Also, could I have someone educate us(me being a layman) on how to review past meeting notes
 +
[9:05pm] jokeefe: how about our own wiki?
 +
[9:05pm] Pirate_Joe: So perhaps a decision on that tonight as well
 +
[9:05pm] Sayyida: jokeefe, sounds good to me, how do we use it
 +
[9:06pm] jokeefe: https://wiki.pirate-party.us/Main_Page
 +
[9:06pm] papegaai: Title: United States Pirate Party (at wiki.pirate-party.us)
 +
[9:06pm] jokeefe: I believe everyone has accounts.
 +
[9:06pm] Sayyida: I am not familiar with wiki, and I would be happy to learn more about it so we have back ups
 +
[9:07pm] jokeefe: I’ll create a page.  We should have a training session then.
 +
[9:07pm] Sayyida: jokeefe, sounds good
 +
[9:07pm] Sayyida: Bosun, do we have the legal ID yet?
 +
[9:08pm] Bosun: You mean EIN?
 +
[9:08pm] Pirate_Joe: jokeefe, it appears that I do not have an account with the national wiki
 +
[9:08pm] Sayyida: yes
 +
[9:09pm] Pirate_Joe: I believe that is what she means Bosun
 +
[9:09pm] Bosun: Not yet - I'll file it tonight.
 +
[9:09pm] jokeefe: ok, will create a wiki account for whomever needs it
 +
[9:09pm] Pirate_Joe: Jokeefe brought forth some legitimate questions about that topic
 +
[9:09pm] Sayyida: lets hear them
 +
[9:09pm] Sayyida: jokeefe, ?
 +
[9:10pm] jokeefe: https://wiki.pirate-party.us/PNC_08/05/19
 +
[9:10pm] papegaai: Title: PNC 08/05/19 - United States Pirate Party (at wiki.pirate-party.us)
 +
[9:10pm] jokeefe: I am concerned about why we are filing as a coop and not an FEC PAC.
 +
[9:11pm] Sayyida: Bosun, this was your filing, would you please explain this one
 +
[9:11pm] jokeefe: It would be good to compare them to understand why a coop is the right choice
 +
[9:12pm] Sayyida: to my understanding jokeefe this was a decision made to prevent someone running away with all the money again
 +
[9:12pm] Sayyida: to prevent power grabs
 +
[9:12pm] jokeefe: ok, I don’t understand how it does that.
 +
[9:13pm] Pirate_Joe: There are some concerns on how we are able to use the money on a PAC like MA, since we will be very limited on how we can receive money from a corp entity.
 +
[9:13pm] jokeefe: why would we want to receive money from a corporation?
 +
[9:13pm] Pirate_Joe: co-op/corp.  etc
 +
[9:14pm] Bosun: The corporate structure does not matter. The coop just defines a corporate structure, like and LLC, or S corp, or limited partnership.
 +
[9:14pm] jokeefe: so we could be a coop and file with the FEC?
 +
[9:14pm] jokeefe: as a PAC?
 +
[9:15pm] Bosun: Yes.
 +
[9:15pm] Pirate_Joe: Then this is simply a failure on my part to explain this properly to jokeefe, I am sorry
 +
[9:15pm] Sayyida: I am not familier with legal wording so I leave this to those with legal knowlage
 +
[9:15pm] Bosun: The coop makes it an association - the membership being state parties, each with one vote.
 +
[9:15pm] Pirate_Joe: I thought they were one or the other.
 +
[9:16pm] Sayyida: we are at half time, as a reminder.
 +
[9:17pm] Bosun: We need some sort of corporate structure for an EIN - which we need for IRS filings.
 +
[9:17pm] jokeefe: No worries. Perhaps we should have it all written up and present it to sab for review.  That way we documentation on how we are organized and why
 +
[9:18pm] Sayyida: sounds fair. Bosun can you please take care of that?
 +
[9:18pm] Pirate_Joe: Ok
 +
[9:18pm] Pirate_Joe: One thing
 +
[9:18pm] Bosun: Coops kinda by the nature define it as a one member one vote organization, as apposed to a corp where votes predetermined by capital contribution.
 +
[9:19pm] jokeefe: Then it should be easy to square with our bylaws.
 +
[9:19pm] Pirate_Joe: May I have access to the SAB list as well as the wiki for the national level?
 +
[9:19pm] jokeefe: sure
 +
[9:20pm] jokeefe: anyone on sab can post to it
 +
[9:20pm] Pirate_Joe: So I would purpose that we commit to posting an SAB mailing Monthly and recommit to doing a monthly Video
 +
[9:20pm] jokeefe: It isn’t https://crew.uspirates.org/
 +
[9:20pm] papegaai: Title: crew.uspirates.org | nulla tenaci invia est via (at crew.uspirates.org)
 +
[9:20pm] Bosun: I set it up with single share for each state, district, and territory - so 56 shares. The recognized party buys one share at $1 par value.
 +
[9:21pm] Bosun: Each recognized entity has one vote.
 +
[9:21pm] jokeefe: The sab list is supposed to be made up of all state party representatives, so it isn’t an announce mailing list
 +
[9:22pm] Pirate_Joe: Do we have an announce mailing list ?
 +
[9:22pm] jokeefe: https://crew.uspirates.org/
 +
[9:22pm] papegaai: Title: crew.uspirates.org | nulla tenaci invia est via (at crew.uspirates.org)
 +
[9:22pm] Sayyida: Pirate_Joe, yes crew should be it
 +
[9:22pm] Pirate_Joe: I don't seem to have access to either of the last two links
 +
[9:23pm] jokeefe: So if we are going to have shares, which as a non-profit seems strange, then we need to change our bylaws.
 +
[9:23pm] jokeefe: Bosun can add you to https://crew.uspirates.org/
 +
[9:23pm] papegaai: Title: crew.uspirates.org | nulla tenaci invia est via (at crew.uspirates.org)
 +
[9:23pm] Sayyida: jokeefe, we are working on rewriting them anyways, I assume we can work it in, right?
 +
[9:24pm] Pirate_Joe: Updating the bylaws is next on the list.  I personally was going to try and spearhead that.  Sayyida offered her assistance as well.  I would love any help I can get to be honest.
 +
[9:24pm] jokeefe: Sure, but we need to amend the bylaws first.  That is why I believe we need a proposal.
 +
[9:25pm] jokeefe: I can help with that.
 +
[9:25pm] Bosun: It is a membership token - the shares.
 +
[9:25pm] Sayyida: we are at 5 min til time should we motion for more time?
 +
[9:25pm] Pirate_Joe: Motion to add 10 minutes of time.
 +
[9:25pm] jokeefe: 2nd
 +
[9:25pm] Pirate_Joe: All in favor?
 +
[9:25pm] Sayyida: aye
 +
[9:25pm] jokeefe: aye
 +
[9:25pm] Pirate_Joe: aye
 +
[9:26pm] Bosun: aye
 +
[9:26pm] Pirate_Joe: Against?
 +
[9:26pm] Sayyida: time extended to 40 past the hour
 +
[9:27pm] Pirate_Joe: So what Jokeefe speaks to is that in MA, first we propose an idea, send it to the activist list and then the following week we make a decision on the matter.
 +
[9:27pm] Pirate_Joe: At least most of the time we do.
 +
[9:27pm] jokeefe: Can we have a proposal for the next meeting to review and vote on either at the next meeting or amend and vote on at following meeting?
 +
[9:27pm] Sayyida: sure
 +
[9:27pm] Pirate_Joe: Having more states involved may slow down things but often good decisions should not be rushed.
 +
[9:27pm] jokeefe: Thank you.
 +
[9:28pm] jokeefe: Aye
 +
[9:28pm] Sayyida: understood, but have we not filed already? Bosun its not too late correct?
 +
[9:28pm] Pirate_Joe: So instead of sending it to the activist list, send to the crew list?
 +
[9:28pm] Pirate_Joe: So long as we can file as a FEC/PAC, I have nothing to contest.
 +
[9:28pm] Bosun: Filed what? EIN?
 +
[9:29pm] Pirate_Joe: Jokeefe, are you satisfied with Bosun's answer?
 +
[9:29pm] Sayyida: yes, its not too late to change from coop to pac?
 +
[9:29pm] Pirate_Joe: There may be no need for that Sayyida
 +
[9:29pm] jokeefe: Nothing special about getting an EIN
 +
[9:30pm] Sayyida: If it is open to change, it needs to be opened to be changed
 +
[9:30pm] Bosun: A PAC is an IRS designation.
 +
[9:30pm] Sayyida: 10 min til time
 +
[9:31pm] jokeefe: 501c3, 501c4, 527 are an IRS designations.
 +
[9:31pm] Bosun: A coop can be anything a corporation can be, except undemocratic.
 +
[9:32pm] jokeefe: Green Party is an FEC PAC and has a democratic structure.
 +
[9:32pm] Pirate_Joe: @jokeefe
 +
[9:32pm] Pirate_Joe: so we could be a coop and file with the FEC?
 +
[9:32pm] Pirate_Joe: as a PAC?
 +
[9:32pm] Pirate_Joe: Bosun
 +
[9:32pm] Pirate_Joe: Yes.
 +
[9:33pm] Sayyida: and they have meetings about having meetings
 +
[9:33pm] Sayyida: sorry the greens give me headaches and I want to be nothing like them
 +
[9:33pm] jokeefe: we don’t have to do that
 +
[9:33pm] Pirate_Joe: Yeah, being annoying may be fun, but gets old quickly enough
 +
[9:33pm] Bosun: Where are the greens incorporated?
 +
[9:34pm] Sayyida: we are nearly at 5 min til time
 +
[9:35pm] jokeefe: don’t know where they are incorporated, Bosun
 +
[9:35pm] Sayyida: jokeefe, are you satisfied with Bosuns answer?
 +
[9:35pm] jokeefe: I don’t know what answer you refer to
 +
[9:35pm] Pirate_Joe: Actually, how do we then accept funds from the national party if they are a coop and not a PAC
 +
[9:36pm] Sayyida: you seem to be concerned with coop vs a pac or am I mistaken
 +
[9:36pm] Bosun: You are mixing apple and organges.
 +
[9:36pm] Bosun: It is not a coop vs. a PAC.
 +
[9:36pm] Sayyida: Like I said I am not familar with the legal complications
 +
[9:37pm] jokeefe: I believe we need a written proposal for why we are organizing the way we are so people can review, comment and decide whether that works for us
 +
[9:37pm] Sayyida: I am trying to resolve time as we are 3 min til time
 +
[9:37pm] Bosun: A PAC is not a corporate structure.
 +
[9:37pm] Sayyida: and we should have one next meeting then
 +
[9:37pm] jokeefe: Motion: draft a written proposal for why we are organizing the way we are so people can review, comment and decide whether that works for us
