Pirate National Committee – During last night’s meeting, the board held their election to fill the vacancies of Directors of PR and the Online. We are pleased to announce our new directors: Joseph Wolfson, our new Director of PR, and Mars Bale, our new Director of the Online. Both will hold the offices for the remainder of the term, which shall be up for reelection during the Pirate National Conference in Boston, MA on June 6th-7th.
Platform – The wording of “Putting People Before Corporations” has been updated to read “Putting Individuals Before Institutions” to not only reinforce our fight against corporate overreach, but state overreach as well. We believe that the people hold the ultimate power in this nation, and institutions should not exist to crush the will of the people.
