[GREN-Exec] request

[John Jackson]

GREN Executive

We need to make a decision regarding the request at the end of this e-mail
list that LuLu has received from a federal candidate to distribute
literature at our event in April. Just before my e-mail you can see Susan
K¹s thoughts on this. My thought, different from Susan K¹s, is that we
should set up a table in the room for anyone who wishes to to set out any
literature they wish, including political candidates. But candidates or
parties should not be allowed to distribute it or greet at the door, etc. -
only having it on a table with other people¹s literature.

What do the rest of you think?

John
