Green Party of Utah’s Mission: The Green Party of Utah commits to building an inclusive political party through promoting candidates and causes that align with the Green Party's ten key values and the four pillars of social justice, ecology, non-violence, and grassroots democracy. 

Greens are grassroots activists, environmentalists, advocates for social justice, nonviolent resisters and regular citizens who’ve had enough of corporate-dominated politics. Government must be part of the solution, but when it’s controlled by the 1%, it’s part of the problem.

The longer we wait for change, the harder it gets.

Vote Green in 2024!
