Any time a sitting member's seat is challenged, the business-portion of the meeting dies due to lack of quorum.

Dear Nancy, Lately, I have been feeling betrayed and like my heart is constantly breaking. I am 42 years old and have been trying desperately to build a connection with my younger brother, but no matter what I do I feel like our relationship just gets worse.
