         The Media Committee would like to request $90.00 – $100.00* for a 6 month subscription to Zoom Pro, for the purpose of conducting virtual PNC-related press conferences and possibly other media events during the following 6 months (the beginning of May through Election Day, November 3rd).   The cost would be $14.99/mo* for a total of $89.94*, estimated to come to about $100.00 with taxes.  (An annual subscription comes with a discount at $149.90*, should the party decide on a more permanent Zoom account.)
