How will the leadership of 1787 be held accountable?

By the members of 1787.  

 

Section 4.1 of the 1787 Bylaws says:  "All corporate powers of 1787, and all business of 1787, will be managed under the authority of the Board of Directors.  Directors may be residents of any state within the United States of America.  The Board will serve as the Executive Committee of 1787 and has the obligation and authority to ensure that 1787 always adheres to the organization’s initial Honor Code and initial position on Civil & Human Rights.  However, the Board has no power over the remaining 1787 Platform or the nomination of 1787 candidates.  The members of 1787 are in complete control of these issues.  At the annual 1787 convention, 1787 members will vote on each policy issue and nominate candidates, majority rule." 

Section 4.3 of the 1787 Bylaws says:  "Removal of Directors.  A Director may be removed, with or without cause, by a vote of a majority of the members of 1787 National Committee, Inc."
