Purpose:
to support our elected SD66 legislators, declared democratic candidates, and other local elected democrats; to communicate information that potentially affects SD66 residents and to engage them on issues of concern.
Guidelines:
- The newsletter is open to submissions from all declared democratic candidates seeking election to positions that govern SD66, whether seeking DFL-endorsement, or not. Post DFL-endorsement, only articles supporting the endorsed candidate will be accepted. In the event of a lack of endorsement, all declared candidates will still be allowed to submit articles.
- The communications committee commits to actively seek out all announced democratic candidates prior to election/endorsement to request a statement, interview, or article.
- The editor of the newsletter will be the Chair or Associate Chair [of SD 66]. S/he will screen all articles and determine, at his/her discretion, which are appropriate for publication, and make any necessary modifications. Newsletters will go to print only after the editor has approved the final copy.
- The communications committee will make sure that the union bug is added to the newsletter.
- To engage readers, we will have an editorial section, where we will print a topic and solicit responses for submission in our next publication.
- We will secure a bulk mail permit to save on mailing costs.
