The USIHC Board of Directors proposed an update to the USIHC Constitution Article IV - Voting and Elections to make the BOD election process more efficient and better align the timeline with our digital ballot system. These proposed changes aim to improve the process while maintaining transparency and accessibility for all members. The proposal will be voted on by the membership during the 2025 USIHC Annual Meeting on February 22, 2025.

Summary of proposed changes:

• Adjusting the election committee appointment date to September 1.
• Revising deadlines for ballot preparation and voting, including:
  • Overseeing the electronic collection of responses and tabulation of votes cast until November 7.
  • Announcing election results by November 15.
• Electing Board Officers at a special meeting in December rather than January.
