LOS ANGELES—Nominations for the 2019 Free Speech Coalition Board of Directors Election will open this Sunday, November 18, and remain open for a period of two weeks. Any member in good standing as of November 11, 2018 can nominate or be nominated for a seat on the Board.
From November 18, 2018 to December 2, 2018, any trade association member in good standing may nominate another member for election to the Board. Those who receive at least two nominations will be added to the ballot. Voting will take place from December 9, 2018 to December 16, 2018.
Free Speech Coalition members will receive the nomination link on November 18 by email. Any members who did not receive the link should email [email protected] on or after November 18, 2018. Nominations will close on December 2, 2018.
As many as seven seats on the board of directors will be up for election, with several current Board members up for reelection.
The Board of Directors helps determine priorities and goals for the Free Speech Coalition, the national trade organization of the adult industry. As such, active and engaged Board members can help shape policy and priorities for the larger adult industry.
Board members are expected to attend bimonthly meetings of the Board to discuss budgets, policy goals, legislative threats, staffing, FSC-run programs such as PASS, and fundraising.
“We depend on the active and engaged board to help us navigate the threats to—and grow the opportunities for—our industry, our organization, and its members,” said Eric Paul Leue, Executive Director of FSC. “In past years, our Board has been made up of some of the most respected professionals in adult entertainment and pleasure products, from manufacturers, to producers, performers, business owners, journalists, and activists in our industry. We depend on their knowledge, passion and commitment to the industry.”
Any questions about the nomination process, qualifications or duties of the board should be directed to [email protected].
