Deadline to Submit Resolutions to CMA’s 2006 House of Delegates Is Aug. 29
[Posted 08/03/06]

The most effective way an individual member can influence CMA’s policies and activities is to submit resolutions to the House of Delegates, the association’s legislative body. The delegates meet annually to debate and act on resolutions and reports dealing with myriad medical practice, public health, and CMA governance issues.

The deadline to submit resolutions to this year’s House of Delegates is August 29. Any CMA member may author a resolution, but a delegate, alternate delegate, component medical society, or specialty delegation must submit the resolution. Before authoring a resolution, physicians are strongly encouraged to review CMA’s policy compendium to make sure that the association is not already addressing the issue.

For more information on submitting a resolution, contact your county medical society. Detailed instructions (including required format, allowed subject matter, and submission rules) are available at CMA’s members-only website.
