Dear ONE-rs,
Recently, we asked you to vote on three amendments to the ONE By-laws. I'm pleased to report all three amendments passed. Roughly 19% of our members voted, and the proportion in favor of the new amendments was above 96% for all three amendments.
As a result, we have adopted the new By-laws. These are now available on the ONE website at http://one.aom.org/about-us/one-constitution.
The three amendments were on the topics of:
- Allowing the Executive Committee to create ex-officio appointments and ad-hoc and standing committees under Article IV
- Allowing amendments to the By-laws to be proposed by the Executive Committee, and removing reference to "ratification" in Article VII
- Updating the list of awards we hand out in Article IX, and allowing the Awards team the ability to create or discontinue awards with the approval of the Chair
I want to thank you for being active in ONE and voting on the above. Our newly adopted amendments reflect the maturation and growth of the ONE division.
I look forward to seeing you all at the virtual conference!
Warm regards
Judith
