The 2023 Green Party Annual National Meeting (ANM) was held from
August 3-6th! We were delighted to gather virtually to provide an
opportunity for all to participate this year, while we continue
efforts to meet again in person in 2024 for our Presidential
Nominating Convention.
 My name is Jason Call and I’m running
for Congress with the Green Party in Washington State in District
2.
"I want to be clear. There are only two people who can
possibly win this seat in November of 2024 – and it’s either going to
be me, or Rick Larsen."
No Republican has any shot of winning in the 2nd district.
This community cares deeply about climate action, social justice, and
labor rights – all things the Republican Party is inherently opposed
to. Since 1965, this district has only been represented by a
Republican for 6 years.
Our progressive, working-class community deserves a representative
who will fight for working families and a livable future.
Please sign up for Jason’s
emails, follow Jason on social media,
and donate what you can to support Jason
and help share his message with more supporters. Every donation helps!

Green Party to join March to End Fossil Fuels in
NYC on Sunday Sept. 17 in conjunction with UN Meeting on Climate. The
Green Party of the United States (GPUS) has endorsed the September
17th March to End Fossil Fuels in New York City. Green Party groups
mobilizing for the event also include the EcoAction Committee of both
GPUS and the Green Party of New York; and Green Parties of New York,
New Jersey, and Connecticut.
The march and rally are being held in conjunction with the United
Nations’ September 20 Climate Ambition Summit
2023 to accelerate action by governments, business,
finance, local authorities and civil society. The Summit represents a
critical political milestone for demonstrating that there is
collective global will to accelerate the pace and scale of a just
transition to a more equitable renewable-energy based,
climate-resilient global economy.
Individuals marching with the Green Party can RSVP
HERE.
Organizers expect the largest climate mobilization since the
pandemic, calling for presidential action to phase out fossil fuels
and address environmental injustice.
The March and
rally are calling on President Biden to:
1. Stop all federal approvals for new fossil fuel projects
and repeal permits for climate bombs like the Willow Project and
Alaska LNG.
2. Phase out fossil fuel DRILLING on our public lands and
waters.
3. Declare a climate emergency to halt oil exports and
investments in fossil fuel projects abroad, AND lead a just transition
to clean, community energy.
The EcoAction
Committee will hold a webinar on End Fossil Fuels on Monday Sept
11 at 8 PM ET. RSVPs are needed.
 Connecting the Dots: Maui's Fires,
Climate Change and Public Policy
The Green Party of the US is deeply saddened by the
devastating wildfires that have ravaged Maui. We extend our
condolences to our friends and the families of those who have lost
loved ones, and we offer our support to those who have been displaced
from their homes.
Climate change is one of several factors that contributed to these
fires. The area in Maui has been in a drought for a number of years,
and the fires were fanned by extremely high winds from a nearby
hurricane. Climate scientists say that climate change provides
additional energy to weather events, increasing their severity.
The burning of fossil fuels is releasing greenhouse gasses into the
atmosphere, which are trapping heat and causing the planet to warm.
The Green Party of the US and Hawai’i are committed to taking action
to address climate change. We support policies such as investing in
renewable energy, reducing deforestation, and improving energy
efficiency.
 Green Party Statement on
Fukushima
Oppose Fukushima Water Release into the Pacific
Ocean!
The Green Party of the United States and the Green
Party of Hawai’i stand in solidarity with our fellow Greens in Japan
and South Korea when calling for the end of the near-shore release of
1.33 million tons of contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi
nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean. The Green Party of the
United States and the Green Party of Hawai’i urges the Government of
Japan to respect existing international treaties that ban the
releasing of nuclear waste into the oceans. We also join the Green
Party Korea and the Greens Japan in calling for the cancellation of
ocean releasing plans. For this, we call for a public review of
methods of on-land storage such as 'large tank storage' and 'mortar
solidification treatment'.
All wars begin with lies, and the lies serve to conceal the real
motives for war. Government motives for mass killing (war) include war
machine profits, geopolitics, and plundering of resources. As the
general population uncovers the real reasons for the war, government
propaganda becomes less effective, which leads to growing dissent and
repression of dissent.
Currently over 61% of people polled (according to CNN) no longer
want weapons sent to continue the proxy war in Ukraine. The U.S.
government has begun to use repressive measures against anti-war
groups. In our webinar you will hear from dissenters and from those
who have witnessed and experienced repression. It is in the interest
of all of us to support dissenters and expose and support those who
have been harmed by repressive measures. We welcome your participation
in this webinar and your support of the right to dissent.
