HIĀ ,



First, we are up against a hard-and-fast deadline to get on the ballot, and

we need your help TODAY.



PROGRESSIVES IN THESE FOLLOWING STATES WILL HAVE NO ONE TO FIGHT FOR THEM

IF WE DO NOT GET ON THE BALLOT:



* Washington needs 1,000 signatures by JULY 25, which will cost $3,000

* Arkansas needs 1000 signatures by AUGUST 3, which will cost $3,000

* Kansas needs 5000 signatures by AUGUST 3, which will cost $15,000

* Nebraska needs 2500 signatures by AUGUST 3, which will cost $7,500



WE NEED TO HIRE PETITION GATHERERS NOW TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN, AND WE NEED

YOUR HELP TO RAISE THE MONEY TODAY.



Please give what you can so that we can get on the ballot in these urgent

states. [4]



We've all heard the saying that "Those who fail to learn from history are

condemned to repeat it."



In World War II, the federal government either took over or built more than

a quarter of the country's manufacturing capacity. This was done to turn

industry on a dime and build an arsenal for democracy that could rise to

defeat the greatest threat of the time: the Nazis.

The clock was ticking and we could not rely on profit incentives in the

market to meet our needs in the timeframe that we needed them met.



Now the clock is ticking again and we need to rise to meet the greatest

threat of our time: climate change.



This is exactly why the ONLY solution to overcoming this threat is that

same level of mobilization in the form of an Ecosocialist Green New Deal.



We need a truly Green economy. We need an Economic Prosperity Program that

is more than just a Climate Action Program.



We don't need to choose between jobs and the environment. The truth of the

matter is that we create jobs by correcting our relationship with the

environment.



Whether we're talking about the Rust Belt, the inner cities, or rural

America, an ECOSOCIALIST GREEN NEW DEAL IS THE QUICKEST AND MOST THOROUGH

WAY TO REVIVE OUR ECONOMIES.



But we are learning from our history too.



When World War II ended, the federal government gave control of the

factories back to the super-rich and the corporations. Instead of repeating

that, we are fighting to see that wealth spread to workers in the form of

worker co-ops that give them the FULL value of the labor that they create.



This is why we are building the Green Party and are determined to be on the

ballot in EVERY. SINGLE. STATE.



We are building the Green Party into a major party because the two major

parties right now are failing to solve our problems.



They are failing to solve the climate crisis.



They are failing to put a stop to the New Nuclear Arms Race.



They are failing to solve the crisis that each of us (80% of Americans in

fact) face every month: HOW ARE WE GOING TO PAY OUR BILLS?



While we appreciate that some Democrats like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and

others have put a spotlight on these issues, there is still work to be

done. It's not enough to keep the slogans while diluting the content of the

argument.



Isn't it time for a major party that truly represents the people to be

presented as an option for voters?



The clock is ticking and we need your support if we are going to succeed.



Donate now and join our cause to create sustainable and responsible change

through an Ecosocialist Green New Deal! [4]



We are glad to have you with us! Team Howie
