Paragraph 4, Article 4 Ratification

The Postponed 2020 General Conference voted to add the words "gender" and "ability" to The UMC Constituion. The vote must be ratified by all annual conferences.

At the Postponed 2020 General Conference, the legislative gathering voted to add the words "gender" and "ability" to Paragraph 4, Article 4 of The United Methodist Church's Constitution.

Now what? This historic vote now needs to be ratified by all the annual conferences across the worldwide connection. A 2/3 majority vote is required by counting the votes from every voting member.

When it comes time to vote at your annual conference, vote "yes," to make sure nobody is excluded from membership in The United Methodist Church for any reason.
