Stop the Saber-Rattling! Greens Call for Immediate Diplomacy to
Resolve Ukraine Crisis
Green Party leaders called on the Biden administration to
immediately cease escalating military tensions and pursue a diplomatic
solution to the Ukraine crisis.
In response to fear of Russian military incursion into Ukraine,
this week U.S. troops from a number of bases across the country have
been put on high
alert for possible deployment to Europe, and the U.S. has
sent
a second batch of weapons to Ukraine. Paramilitaries
trained by the CIA in the U.S. are reportedly advising counterparts in
eastern Ukraine, even while Democrats
in Congress are fast-tracking for passage this week a bill for $500
million more in weapons for Ukraine.

Greens Call Out Democratic Party for Once Again Killing
California’s Hopes for Single-Payer Healthcare
Despite the Democratic Party’s super-majorities in both houses of
the legislature, CalCare (AB 1400), the California Guaranteed Health
Care for All Act, was pulled on Monday, January 31, just before the
Assembly floor vote, by its primary author, Assemblymember Ash
Kalra.
He cited the need to gather more support from Democratic
Assemblymembers as the reason, but his action denied voters the
opportunity to learn where their representatives stand on the
bill.
The fact that the majority of California Democratic
Assemblymembers do not support a single-payer system when the vast
majority of their constituents do is inexcusable.
