Guest cpilla1 Posted September 10, 2013 at 08:12 PM Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 at 08:12 PM We have a member who insists all amendments don't go into effect until our next calendar year per Robert's Rules. I cannot find where it specifically states that they go into effect immediately in the 11th edition but I found a link online from the 4th edition that says this. does anyone know where in the 11th edition I can reference the information?

His futile search might be entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
