EcoAction Committee Wants You to Organize for Earth Day to May
Day
The Green Party US EcoAction
Committee is encouraging Greens to organize and
participate in Earth
Day to May Day (EDMD) activities. Please contact
EcoAction ([email protected]) if
your local Green Party is sponsoring any events, actions or webinars
around EDMD so we can include in our calendar.
EcoAction will hold a webinar on April 9th outlining ways to
participate in EDMD during its regular monthly meeting on the second
Monday of the month at 9:00 PM ET.
The goal of EDMD is to highlight the connection between labor,
climate action, peace and the rights of people and planet, including
immigration justice and dismantling white supremacy. We want to
collaborate with the many movements working for fundamental system
change.
Our themes
this year are an Ecosocialist Green New Deal, the Rights of Nature,
and A Goal of Real Zero Emissions by 2030. We need to end wars for
fossil fuels by halting their use and transitioning to clean,
renewable energy.
Campaigning 101 This Sunday, 03/20
Join the Green Party of Washington State this
Sunday, March 20th! They are looking for progressives who share Green
values to run for elected office. All across the country, hundreds of
Green Party candidates will be challenging the two corporate parties.
This is a great time to learn the ins and outs of running for office
and a great opportunity to listen to the experiences of Greens who
have run and won their seats.
The guest speakers will be former Santa Monica, California City
Council Member and Mayor Mike Feinstein along
with Brenda Konkel, former Alderperson and Council
President of Madison, Wisconsin. They'll speak on their experiences of
running for office, the challenges of finding and recruiting a
campaign staff, and what it's like to actually be a Green in elected
office. This is a great chance for people who are interested in
running or participating in electoral campaigns to get their questions
answered by Greens who've done it.
Video Available Now: Green Party of NY on Prof. Rick
Wolff's Economic Update
The video of Prof. Rick Wolff's Economic Update interview
with Green Party of New York organizers Gloria
Mattera and Michael O'Neil is
now available to watch, "like" and share from
YouTube. The episode exposes how New York Democrats
instituted some of the worst ballot access restrictions in the nation
to eliminate the ballot line GPNY had maintained for 10 years.
This latest example of how the duopoly parties attempt to rig the
system leads to a discussion of why the Green Party is needed and how
we all can fight back and win a real Grassroots Democracy.

Green Party of Pennsylvania Co-sponsors PA Climate
Convergence
The Green Party of Pennsylvania (GPPA) has
become a co-sponsor of the PA Climate Convergence in Harrisburg, PA,
on the weekend on June 11 – June 13.
GPPA Co-chair Beth Scroggin (Chester County)
explained, “We support the Climate Convergence because climate change
is the most important issue any of us are facing. If we continue to
ignore it, none of the other issues we focus on will matter, because
we will all cease to exist. The Green Party has always prioritized the
environment, and because our candidates do not accept corporate
donations, we are not forced to remain silent on the issue or minimize
it."
