The Bylaws Committee volunteer members were elected by the Legislative District PCOs and have done a great job of carefully researching and reviewing suggested changes to the Bylaws. The committee worked on proposed changes and updates over a two-month period and they have unanimously approved their draft.

The proposed bylaws have been updated with current language and specific references to the RCWs that are part of the bylaws. Several of the changes have been to clarify the role and authority of the Central Committee. There have been minor changes to Articles 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 mainly referring to the RCW. Article 9 has been expanded for clarification and 9.2 has been added so that the bylaws will remain in effect until amended or changed by the Central Committee. Article 10 has been expanded to allow a process for the Central Committee to endorse candidates seeking elected office as Republicans. The Dissolution referenced in Article 12 has been replaced with bylaws explaining forms of communication, notifications and calls.
