Dear
Friend,
One of my favorite parts of working for the Green Party is meeting
people just like you and me who are running extraordinary
campaigns across this country.
On
tonight's episode of our 2020 Green Wave Candidate
Showcase you can meet two such Greens: Franca Muller Paz
and Michael Bagdes-Canning. And you'll learn how you can HELP.
THEM. WIN.
Candidates
like Franca and Michael don't just emerge out of thin air! Our party
must recruit and train candidates, campaign managers, treasurers and
more before anyone even declares they are running. Donate to the Green
Party so we can keep supporting this year's candidates while preparing
the candidates of 2021 and beyond.
Franca
is running for Baltimore City Council and has racked up HUGE
endorsements from Democratic Socialists of America, the Metro
Baltimore AFL-CIO and more!
Michael's
campaign for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives (Dist 64) has
brought together a coalition including SUNRISE Pittsburgh, Our
Revolution (Butler, PA) and Indivisible Central PA.
Why are these campaigns important? Franca and
Michael are forging alliances with people's movements
outside of the two-party power structure. These alliances strengthen
our ability to win office now and will become increasingly important
in the long-term fight against capitalism, ecocide and
authoritarianism.
And they are two profoundly skilled campaigners
that any Green can learn from.
The Coordinated Campaign Committee hosts trainings throughout the
year where Greens can learn from seasoned campaigners. But we need to
expand that curriculum and reach more Greens! Can
you help us by contributing today?
In Solidarity, Michael O'Neil Green Wave Livestream Producer
/ Communications Manager Green Party of the United States
P.S. Break through the Greenout of the presidential debates! Look
for Howie's response to Trump and Biden on the evening of the first
debate on September 29th. In
the meantime, help us break through the Corporate Sound Barrier by
becoming a Green Party Monthly Sustainer at whatever amount you can
afford.
