Who may propose amendments to the organization’s bylaws?

• A. Only the president may propose amendments.
• B. Amendments may be proposed by members or the board.
• C. Amendments can only be proposed by external regulators.
• D. Amendments may be proposed by the treasurer.

Answer: (B)

Proposals to change the bylaws should come from those who actually shape and oversee the organization’s governance—the members who participate in decisions and the board that runs operations. Allowing both groups to suggest amendments ensures the rules reflect the community’s needs while also benefiting from leadership perspective on what’s practical to implement. External regulators don’t typically draft internal governing rules, and restricting proposals to a single officer would limit input and oversight.
