The proposals to be debated at policy workshops are heavy with environmental measures, a copy of the resolutions show. But those resolutions are less likely to become party policy than the still unreleased, high-priority list of motions that automatically goes to debate by the full convention. - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
