Virtual Reference Committees
The WSMA's virtual reference committees give members an opportunity to review and provide feedback on official proposed WSMA policy.
About the Virtual Reference Committees
Access the members-only virtual reference committees below. Use the virtual reference committees to review and discuss resolutions and other business that will be considered by the House of Delegates during the WSMA Annual Meeting in the fall (comments in these virtual reference committees are compiled and considered by the members of the reference committees when making their recommendations to the House during the annual meeting).

Reference Committees are items to be considered by the House of Delegates. No action has been taken on any of these items. Resolutions are submitted by WSMA delegates/delegations, the WSMA board of trustees, and WSMA sections and are informational only. The statements and opinions expressed in resolutions are those of the authors and the WSMA makes no representations of any kind about the accuracy of information contained therein. Only those items that have been acted upon by the House can be considered official.
Submitting a Resolution
To submit a resolution to be considered by the House of Delegates during the WSMA Annual Meeting, you must organize your proposal into the required resolution format and identify a sponsor (resolutions must be sponsored by a WSMA delegate, alternate delegate, or member of the board of trustees). Resolutions can be submitted to hod@wsma.org at any time during the year.
Once accepted, the WSMA will assign your resolution to a reference committee and then upload the resolutions into the corresponding virtual reference committee for discussion by members before going to the WSMA House of Delegates for action.
