Presently all of the revenue of our state, local and tribal governments is deposited with private-sector banks. All of the financing that our various governments obtain is issued by those same banks. The profits from these two aspects of handling our money float off to the shareholders of those banks.

In the early 2000’s, the Green Party of New York State sued when we temporarily lost ballot status so that people get to remain in the party of their choice – even if the party itself has to run as “independents”.  We are still Greens.  The Green Party is continuing to function at the state and local levels.  Our lawsuit is still in the courts and our lawyers are optimistic about our chances.  But no matter what happens, we have to keep fighting the fight for single payer health care, combating climate change, and a more just economy.  You may be getting a phone call from someone representing the Working Families Party trying to talk you into changing your registration.  The establishment is trying to eliminate us because we have always been a threat to the way they maintain the status quo.

“The most important issue we face is preparing to heal from this pandemic while we figure out how we will prevent District 4 and the City of Pittsburgh from falling victim to similar crises again,” Mulvaney said. “We must build resilience in ways that are meaningful for peoples’ everyday lives, such as keeping our streets safe and clear, keeping the lights on, and ensuring our families are fed and in good health. We can do all of this and more with a bold approach to policy.”

As you may know, Greens in North Carolina are in jeopardy of losing our registered Green voter status. That means the North Carolina Green Party (NCGP) may have to collect over 14,000 petition signatures in order to regain our legal party status, and with it our ballot access and the ability for people in North Carolina to register as Green voters again. Regardless of the obstacle, the NCGP will be running several candidates at the local level this year. But right now, we need your support: please contact Governor Cooper and ask for Executive Relief due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

On February 7th, the State Executive Committee of the West Virginia Mountain Party voted to affiliate with the Appalachian People’s Front (APF), a newly formed left-wing coalition dedicated to mutual aid, political education, and community organizing in West Virginia and surrounding states. Like the Mountain Party, APF is dedicated to grassroots organizing and the building of independent working-class institutions outside of the two-party system.
