Rationale: This is a reaffirmation and updated statement based on the 2012 immigration resolution, reflecting the global significance of the issue. Proposed change: Recast the 2012 resolution into statement form, emphasizing dignity, compassion, fair legal processes, family unity, and just immigration policy.

Rationale: The statement clarifies how the church should use AI with integrity and discernment. Proposed change: Add a doctrinal/ethical statement encouraging AI as a support tool for ministry while rejecting its use as a substitute for spiritual calling, and condemning misuse such as fraud or misinformation.

Rationale: The current trial procedure is seen as incomplete because the plaintiff’s right to question defense witnesses is not clearly stated. Proposed change: Add a rule allowing the plaintiff to question each defense witness before dismissal.

Rationale: The rationale argues for stronger fairness and due process, including an appeal path and clearer deadlines. Proposed change: Define deadlines as business days, extend notice timing, add a right to request a trial-date change, and require prompt notification of trial decisions.

Rationale: The proposal seeks greater consistency by requiring state/regional council involvement in restoration decisions. Proposed change: Require both the state/regional overseer and the state/regional council to recommend reinstatement in explicit misconduct cases.
