The new caucus shall annually appoint a person to the Executive Council with voting privileges, to represent the body on the council.
Good Standing -
1. To be recognized as a fully voting caucus the newly formed caucus must meet at least two times and have at least three members in the caucus. The Executive Council representative must appear before the Executive Council to be recognized as a new caucus and present the needs and goals of the group.
2. The new caucus must meet at least once per term to continue to be recognized as a caucus.
3. Caucus representative may not miss three consecutive Executive Council Meetings.
Challenging Caucus Standing -
1. Caucuses are assumed to be in good standing.
2. Any Executive Councilor can request a demonstration of standing of any caucus representative.
3. A motion is required to bring the issue to the floor and simple majority vote will be required to open discussion of the proposed challenge.
4. When a caucus representative is challenged, they must demonstrate that they are in good standing to the Executive Council.
5. If the Executive Council is unsatisfied with the demonstration of standing, they can move to remove the caucus representative from the council. This would be done with a motion and would require a 2/3 vote of the total number of eligible Executive Councilors present at the meeting.

Section Four - Caucus membership and Goals

All full members or associate members in good standing may be a member of a caucus.
Caucus may not operate in a manner that does not take into consideration bettering the union as a whole. The caucuses and the union as a whole benefit by the inclusion of all its members and should strive to empower groups of individuals who have been historically and contemporarily disadvantaged.
A caucus may determine that it is in the benefit of the caucus and thus the benefit of the union as a whole to make a caucus meeting only available to certain group(s) of people. The caucus should attempt to limit these meetings as much as possible and make every effort to communicate their needs and goals with the union as a whole.
Caucus should make all effects to refrain from challenging the characteristics of any one person who states their inclusion in a specific group. Each individual member in our union has the rights to choose how they want to be identified. If any individual member is excluded from a caucus meeting based on challenges of group inclusion, they may appeal their exclusion to the Executive Board. The Executive Board must notify the Executive Council of their decision and the Executive Council or the General Membership may override the Executive Boards ruling by a majority vote of either body.
