At the Postponed 2020 General Conference, the legislative gathering voted to add the words "gender" and "ability" to Paragraph 4, Article IV of The United Methodist Church's Constitution. Now what? This historic vote now needs to be ratified by all the annual conferences across the worldwide connection. A 2/3 majority vote is required by counting the votes from every voting member.
