GreenLine For July 28, 2022
We have hit the ground running after last
weekend's Annual National Meeting with a
call-in day to tell President Biden to declare a Climate
Emergency!
A threat as deadly as the climate crisis demands using every
executive power a president can muster. Anything short of that is lip
service while the world burns.
Please
share the action page, make your call, and check out the
latest Green Party updates below!

Howie Hawkins Breaks
Down Dems' Suppression of Hoh For Senate, GPNY
in Counterpunch
"The last week of June 2022 brought more strikes against an
American democracy already in deep crisis. Democrats blocked access to
the ballot for the Green Party of North Carolina and seven independent
gubernatorial tickets in New York.
Meanwhile, the Republican-majority U.S. Supreme Court agreed to
hear the Moore v. Harper case on
North Carolina gerrymandering in which the court is likely in 2023 to
affirm the “independent state legislature” doctrine.
That formerly fringe legal theory claims that the U.S. Constitution’s
election clause empowers state legislatures to administer federal
elections as they see fit, no matter what state governors, state
constitutions, or state courts say. It would enable state legislatures
to rig elections through partisan gerrymandering, partisan voter
suppression, and partisan vote counting. Republican-controlled state
legislatures could name their own Electoral College slates if they
lose their states’ popular vote in order to steal
the 2024
presidential election."

Help Make History in Connecticut
A humble request from candidate for Governor Michelle Louise
Bicking:
I am reaching out personally to solicit
your support in reaching the 7,500 signature deadline by August 10st.
If there is any way you can gather signatures in your own towns as
well as places that you frequent, please let me know. If there are
places that you would like me to speak or otherwise be present, please
call on me directly.
The days that I have most availability
are Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays to meet, discuss a town by town
strategy, etc. I cannot complete the last leg of this race to get in
the state ballot without you. ALL of you. If you haven't heard it says
in a while, THANK YOU so much for your individual investment in
keeping the Green Party afloat on the state and local levels
throughout out the decades.
I hope to see you soon, at an event
hear you.

The Massachusetts Green-Rainbow Party Needs Help Getting on the
Ballot
The Massachusetts Green-Rainbow
Party urgently needs your help
getting our statewide slate on the
ballot, which could lead to regaining major party status and securing
ballot access for our 2024 federal and presidential candidates!
Would you like to see Green candidates through 2024? This year, MA
Green-Rainbow Party is down several key volunteers for various reasons
and they are relying heavily upon a professional petitioner to collect
the 5000 verified signatures needed to secure ballot access for our
slate of statewide candidates. We need his help and yours!
The deadline is approaching at the end of July! Our campaigns need
to pay him (a very modest amount compared to any petition firm), for
his work that we are truly grateful for so that we can get our slate
on the ballot. MGRP also needs volunteer petitioners ASAP – even if
you can only volunteer for just one day or event.
Help Put the Green Party of Pennsylvania on the Ballot
The Green Party of
Pennsylvania needs your help to ensure
there's a Green choice on the ballot in Pennsylvania this year. We
need at least 5000 signatures before July 29th, 2022, and we're over
half way there now -- your help will get us to the goal! We're working
to do this three ways, and call for volunteers to sign up for one of
the following:
- VOLUNTEER to circulate a
petition and get signatures from voters at public events! Contact us
and we can get you materials to petition on your own, or connect you
with teams in Pittsburgh or elsewhere!
-
SIGN a petition yourself, if
you are a registered voter in PA! If you're unable to volunteer, we
can mail you a petition; you sign it, get your friends, family, or
neighbors to sign, and mail it right back!
-
DONATE to help us cover
petition expenses, filing fees, and legal costs, if you're unable to
sign or volunteer!
