Fellow Liberty Leaders
It is my pleasure and privilege to present to you the ratified Constitution and Bylaws for the Scott County Republican Liberty Caucus (attached)!  After years of brainstorming, much personal discussion, three separate sessions of debate, and a style committee review the Constitution and Bylaws were accepted by unanimous vote at approximately 7:30 PM on July 13, 2012.  Much thanks are in order to Mr. Elliot for composing the original draft and acting as one of our parliamentarians, to Mr. Angelos for his parliamentarian services and for handling credentials, and to Mr. Berntsen for handling secretarial duties along with hosting the final debate and signing ceremony in his beautiful home.  Last, but certainly not least, are all of you who sacrificed your time and effort to debate over and shape this document into the masterpiece it is now.  Without your hard work and dedication to the cause of Liberty we would not have this statement of our ideals to serve as an organizational foundation for the future of politics in Scott County.
Friday evening was the first affirmation ceremony for members of the SCRLC and those eligible for captain status were credentialed by Mr. Angelos as such.  Also Friday evening served as a formal signing ceremony.  Following affirmations the newly credentialed captains set the standing meeting time, date, and location as:
  • First Tuesday of every month
  • Downtown Central Perk, 226 W 3rd St.,  Davenport, IA
  • 6:30 PM social hour
  • 7:00 PM Meeting called to order
If you are interested in being affirmed as a member of the SCRLC, pursuant to the guidelines of Article IV of the Constitution, and/or attended any of the three conventions and did not sign the ceremonial signature page, but would like to, please attend the first regular meeting or contact one of the Pro Tem officers (myself, Mr. Berntsen, Mr. Elliott, or Mr. Angelos) for more details.
A Wonderful thing is happening here and I am honored to be a part of it.  The Revolution was fought by ordinary citizens who did extraordinary things in the name Individual Liberty.  Count yourselves amongst them.
With Liberty and Justice for All,
C.J. Sissel
Chairman Pro Tem, Scott County Republican Liberty Caucus
WC Precinct Delegate
