Hello Friend,
Yesterday was World Whistleblower
Day. I likely don't have to tell you that 2024 has been a particularly
notable year for whistleblowers, and our party remains a key voice for
protecting these brave individuals who stand up for the truth at great
personal risk.
The Green Party has always supported the moral imperative of
exposing corporate or governmental criminal activity. Protections for
whistleblowers have been part of our platform for the last 2
decades.

Support for whistleblowers has been
a key promise of Green candidates as well. During the 2016 election
cycle Jill Stein pledged to grant Edward Snowden a full pardon and
appoint him to her cabinet if elected. It is imperative that the
citizens of the United States know what our government and our
military are doing in our name, and we have an obligation to hold them
accountable.
The country’s attention was riveted
by the years of unlawful imprisonment suffered by Julian Assange.
Greens around the world celebrated
the plea deal finally reached with the U.S. government
that will finally allow Julian to return home. In a recent interview,
the presumptive Green Party nominee offered Julian Assange a full
pardon and a place in the cabinet if elected.

In recent news, two Boeing
whistleblowers have been found dead and a third one has testified to
congress that he fears for his life. Again, Green Party candidates
have been calling out these dangerous war profiteering corporations
and those in the parties of War and Wall Street who enable
them.
Corporate greed is out of control,
and it's only been getting worse since 2020. These corporations can
contribute to political parties and they have been doing so at
staggering rates. In contrast, the Green Party and our candidates
reject all corporate donations. Our efforts across the country rely on
donations from people like you and a network of thousands of
volunteers across the country.
As a political party committed to
rejecting corporate money, your support is invaluable to us. Support
from members and allies like you help us fund our electoral efforts
across the country.

Please
consider supporting our voice in support of whistleblowers and join
our mission to protect whistleblowers today!
In solidarity,
Margaret Elisabeth,
Co-Chair
Green Party of the United States https://www.gp.org/
P.S. Our monthly sustaining donors are the lifeblood of the party
and we are immensely grateful for them. If you haven’t
already, consider joining the ranks of our Monthly
Sustainers.
