LPO's new membership plan

The Old Membership Plan
Until recently, membership in the national Libertarian Party was unified with the State and County parties. The Libertarian National Committee voted to end this agreement with the states at its August 2005 meeting. By ending this agreement, the national Libertarian Party freed the states and counties to create their own membership plans. Under the old plan, national membership included the right to vote and run for party leadership positions at local meetings, state conventions, and national conventions.

The New Membership Plan
The new membership plan is local, here in Ohio. Your contributions will directly benefit Ohio public policy (such as the current fight on eminent domain) and help us build a sound state party.
As an LPO Member you will be qualified to: 1. Vote at the State and National conventions as a delegate. 2. Receive the LPO News. 3. Be invited to special LPO events. 4. Run for a leadership position within the LPO.Please click on the following link if you would like to continue your membership with the Libertarian Party of Ohio: http://www.lpo.org/Membership/MembershipMain.php
If you prefer to join the Party through normal mail please call Robert Butler at (800) 669-6542 for a membership application. Please feel free to call or email any questions you may have regarding the new membership plan.

Yours In Liberty,
Robert Butler
Executive Director Libertarian Party of Ohio

Keep in mind that you will still be a member of the National party under this plan, however, you will no longer be subscribed to LP News (the natoinal LP newsletter). Due to campaign finance reform laws, the national newsletter will be handled by a 3rd party.
