Amending the CMC

The CMC may be amended by written resolution or by a Grand Master’s Recommendation. Written resolutions must bear the names and signatures of at least three members of grand lodge, each a member of a different lodge. The written resolution must be received by the grand secretary at least 180 days prior to the Annual Communication. Members of grand lodge include the grand lodge officers, past grand master, past grand officers, past masters of this jurisdiction, and the masters and wardens of each lodge, except Research Lodges and Historic Lodges. A resolution must receive a five-sixth majority affirmative vote to be adopted. If a resolution does not receive a five sixth majority affirmative vote, but it receives a simple majority, the resolution carries over to the next Annual Communication, at which time it requires a two-thirds affirmative vote for adoption.
