1. Constituency Statements. The Representatives will each be 
responsible for soliciting the position of their constituencies, at a 
minimum, and other comments as each Representative deems appropriate, 
regarding the issue under consideration. This position and other 
comments, as applicable, should be submitted in a formal statement to 
the task force chair (each, a "Constituency Statement") within 
thirty-five (35) calendar days after initiation of the PDP. Every 
Constituency Statement shall include at least the following:

    (i) If a Supermajority Vote was reached, a clear statement of the 
constituency's position on the issue;

    (ii) If a Supermajority Vote was not reached, a clear statement 
of all positions espoused by constituency members;

    (iii) A clear statement of how the constituency arrived at its 
position(s). Specifically, the statement should detail specific 
constituency meetings, teleconferences, or other means of deliberating 
an issue, and a list of all members who participated or otherwise 
submitted their views;

    (iv) An analysis of how the issue would affect the constituency, 
including any financial impact on the constituency; and

    (v) An analysis of the period of time that would likely be 
necessary to implement the policy.

                "Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions.
                                           All life is an experiment.
                            The more experiments you make the better."
