The moment has arrived! The Queens fall schedule is set, and below is some breaking local Libertarian news!
Join Queens Libertarians (aka Libertarian Party of Queens County, or Queens LP) for a special social gathering to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the organization. This meeting will be held on the SECOND SUNDAY, ON OCTOBER 13 AT 7 PM, in Manhattan, at the Pubkey Bar and Media House at 85 Washington Pl (near Washington Square Park). Members and attendees will talk about the LP chapter/county committee and its activity over food and drinks, and discuss its history and future (other speakers, or candidates to be announced). A general background statement on QL can be reviewed at http://www.queenslibertarians.org/past-controversies/
As needed, a short business session may be held, covering Queens LP planning and subcommittee updates, including plans for a November 2024 county convention. Attendees may inquire about joining LPQC and becoming active with us. PubKey is duly noted for serving the cause of liberty in NYC by hosting several LP meetups in recent months, and for promoting the crypto movement towards advancing bitcoin mining and alternative finance. LPQC proudly leaves our home borough to honor it through this unique event. Hope to see you there! Details and Directions
Then one month later, join us for QL’s 2024 county convention (second try) as the Libertarian Party of Queens County (LPQC) on November 9 at noon. It will be held in our Fresh Meadows location at Hooters on 61-09 190th St, in the patio area. This official LP county committee function will serve as our full general meeting, where officers will be nominated or re-nominated, and committee or subcommittee members are to be appointed. We also plan to decide on our regular location going forward (choosing between Tu Casa in Woodhaven, Stamatis in Astoria, or Hooters). Attendees are asked to pay/renew dues of $20 to LPQC by or during the proceedings in order to vote. More info on the venue is at: https://www.hooters.com/locations/32908-fresh-meadows
Members and attendees will also speak, in the topical section, on the outcome of the November election—what are the implications for the future of the LP? An open discussion will cover concerns over ballot access in New York, and on how to secure restoring it in 2026 going forward. In this session members will again be offered to serve as LPQC officers (such as Secretary), and as key persons or “team members” for the following positions: media contact, membership/fundraising, candidate/activist outreach, youth/campus outreach, community/business outreach. Please attend, and volunteer to help in one of these areas! Details and Directions
