Friend,
Jill Stein has been traveling the
country on a whirlwind tour that’s taking her to 14 states in 3 weeks.
She still has upcoming events in Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and
Minnesota, but so much has already happened that we wanted to send you
some postcards from Jill’s road trip!
Jill’s tour began in Denver,
Colorado on February 25th, where she spoke to a full house at the
Colorado Islamic Society about how we can demand an end to the
genocidal war in Gaza, and much more.
|
Next came stops in Portland, Oregon and
Seattle, Washington, where Jill laid out the critical need for
universal healthcare on a Medicare for All panel along with her
campaign manager Jason Call, himself a Green candidate for
Congress. |
After meeting with constituent groups in
California, Jill traveled to New York City to join the Free and Equal
presidential debate, where her powerful debate performance was cheered
on by enthusiastic supporters in the audience. |
The next stop was Morgantown, West Virginia,
where Jill met a friendly reception from local community members,
including student leaders running for office as members of the
Mountain Party, West Virginia’s state affiliate of the Green
Party. |
After West Virginia, Jill headed to Ohio,
where she met with residents of East Palestine and neighboring
communities at a fiery town hall meeting about the ongoing disaster
caused by a train derailment and toxic chemical spill over a year ago,
and the failure of the Biden administration to provide the resources
they need to recover. Jill’s powerful meeting with East Palestine
residents demanding justice was livestreamed and drew media coverage from NewsNation, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and numerous local media outlets. |
From East Palestine, Jill has
continued to travel through the Midwest, meeting with local supporters
and communities that have been abandoned by the parties of war and
Wall Street. Jill keeps telling us that at every stop along the way -
including Columbus and Toledo, Ohio; Lexington, Kentucky; Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania; and Fort Wayne, Indiana - her days have been full of
meaningful conversations on important issues and deep
connections.
For Jill, this isn't about amassing
fame, fortune, or personal power - this campaign is
all about connecting with people like you over the
things that really matter and building a movement together to fight
for people, planet, and peace.
In many places, our supporters have
been generous enough to open their homes for campaign events, like
this house party in Toledo hosted by longtime Green stalwart Anita
Rios:
|
This is a truly grassroots
campaign, and we’re immensely grateful to everyone who has
come out to meet Jill, everyone who has helped organize for her trip,
and every one of you who has contributed to help make it
happen.
The connections being made by Jill,
Jason, Kelly, and our many team members and volunteer organizers are
laying the groundwork for our campaign to get on the ballot across the
country, organize in every state, and make history this
November.
And Jill’s tour isn’t
over: today she is in Dearborn, Michigan, with a public meeting at the
Islamic House of Wisdom, and over the next week she has events in Chicago, Illinois; Madison, Racine, and Milwaukee, Wisconsin; and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
If you can, please come out to meet
Jill, and if you don’t get a chance to see her this time around,
please support our campaign so we can continue to send Jill to
communities like yours across the country!
In solidarity and gratitude,
The Jill Stein 2024 team
