If you want this added Marรญosa you'd have to make it more formal than this. I've added a link to a previous constitutional amendment. Format is important as this will literally be what is going in the Constitution. Maybe I'm wrong though, maybe we need more "peeeaaace and lovvve" and kiss emojis in the Constitution  :D

And then in the agm the vote will be to make this entire amendment or not.

As new committee position nominations needs to be posted 10 days before the general meeting, you'd also need to vote this position in in another different meeting.
