    5. Do not commit LWV Minnesota to any action unless authorized to do so
    6. Refrain from making any statement on behalf of LWV Minnesota or purport to represent LWV Minnesota through any public medium, including digital social media, unless specifically authorized to do so by LWV Minnesota’s President
