Patria to help advance and develop the League of Secessionist States

As Congress is preparing to return from summer recess (the Second Session of the 49th Congress will meet on Sept. 19), Patria has been appointed to the Committee for the Advancement and Development of the League of Secesssionist States (CADLOSS). Patria has been a member of the League of Secessionist States (LOSS) for many years, but the organization has become neglected, its website not being updated since the last decade and at last click having fallen into "404-not found" country.

The following is the text of the resolution that authorized the creation of CADLOSS:

1. WHEREAS the League of Secessionist States has experienced inactivity and a lack of vision in recent years;

2 . And, WHEREAS, the League seeks to develop its vision and maintain its relevance in the inter-micronational arena;

3. BE IT RESOLVED, that the League of Secessionist States does hereby establish a Committee for the Advancement and Development of the League of Secessionist States (CADLOSS).

(1) This shall consist of three to five members, to be appointed by the Secretary-General.
(2) It shall consult on the purpose, goals and mission of the League, the future and development of the League, the reactivation of the League and its continued expansion and on means for raising public awareness of the League's existence and activities.
(3) It shall, if necessary, propose amendments to the Charter clarifying the purpose, goals and mission of the League;
(4) It shall, furthermore, propose any other measures or resolutions necessary to reform or reactivate the League, which shall be set before the General Assembly.
(5) Finally, it shall consider the League's forms of media and communications, including the Yahoogroup, forum and website and propose changes, where necessary, to the means by which the League informs the public of its activities and the means by which the League itself functions and communicates.

4. This Committee shall be dissolved when the Secretary-General shall decide that it has fulfilled its mandate. It may be re-established in the future when and as necessary, by the Secretary-General, except if the General Assembly shall decree otherwise.
