Dear Libertarian,

There are two video/web events I wanted you to be aware of tonight.

First, at 7 pm EDT tonight on both Facebook and YouTube, LPTV will broadcast its inaugural episode. It's a Town Hall hosted by Nicholas Sarwark, featuring Peter Everett, M.D., from Boston, and Apollo Pazell, elected Libertarian Vice Mayor of Copperton, Utah. Copperton recently issues a request to their governor asking him to defy Federal regulations that were hampering healthcare operations in Utah.

Second, tonight at 9 pm, the LNC will have an online meeting discussion the National Convention in Austin. While only LNC members will be able to participate, viewing is open to the public. More information is available HERE.

And finally, we'd like you to help us honor some great Libertarians! The following awards will be presented during the 2020 LP National Convention:

Thomas Jefferson Leadership Award — presented to the LP member whose achievements demonstrate outstanding leadership, impeccable character, and dedication to the principles and goals of the party.

Patrick Henry Candidate Award — presented to the LP member who has been a very effective candidate for public office at the state or federal level, while communicating Libertarian ideas, principles, and values. Nominees can be candidates in 2018 and thereafter.

Benjamin Franklin Candidate Award — presented to the LP member who has been a very effective candidate for public office at the local level, while communicating Libertarian ideas, principles, and values. Nominees can be candidates in 2018 and thereafter.

Hall of Liberty — The Hall of Liberty, established in 2012, honors lifetime or significant achievement that has made a lasting impact on the Libertarian Party and/or libertarian movement. Induction into the Hall of Liberty requires a unanimous vote of the Awards Committee. (At most three people can be inducted at the national convention.)
