You may send resolutions anytime from June 1 up until conference and the resolutions will be given to the appointed committee of resolutions, whose task is to consider and recommend appropriate resolutions to the members attending the annual meeting.
If you are a member of Pennsylvania Society for the Advancement of the Deaf, and are interested in submitting a resolution for consideration by the PSAD Committee on Resolutions, please be aware of the following requirements and restrictions:
1.
All resolutions must be typewritten, titled, and dated.
2.

The PSAD Committee on Resolutions is vested with the authority to combine, title or retitle, and reword submitted resolutions, and to submit resolutions entirely of its own making.
How to Frame a Resolution
Resolution writing generally follows conventional lines. A resolution is usually couched in almost legal phrasing, consisting of two parts: (a) the reasons for the resolution, preceded by WHEREAS, and (b) the resolution itself preceded by be it RESOLVED; in case of more than one “RESOLVED,” be it further RESOLVED.
If you feel that you don’t understand how the writing of the resolutions, don’t worry, the PSAD committee of resolutions will help and revise it for you.
