Resolutions

Resolutions are formal positions adopted by the Alabama Young Democrats to recognize supporters, take policy positions, provide endorsements, or make other official statements on behalf of the statewide organization.

• All resolutions for consideration must be submitted to the Chair of the Resolutions Committee no less than 14 days prior to the start of Convention (May 1, 2021).
• Each resolution will be considered by the Resolutions Committee and may be amended by that committee.
• Each resolution will either be given a favorable report, an unfavorable report, or tabled. All resolutions receiving a favorable report will move forward to the full body for a final vote to approve, reject, or table.
• All resolutions should be submitted in the “Whereas-Therefore” format. For an example of how to draft a resolution in this format, you may view a past AYD resolution here or click here for a resolution drafting guide from a non-affiliated organization.
