The Green Party of the United States is a federation
of state Green Parties. Committed to environmentalism,
non-violence, social justice and grassroots organizing, Greens are
renewing democracy without
the support of corporate donors. Greens provide real
solutions for real problems. Whether the issue is universal
health care, corporate globalization, alternative energy, election reform
or decent, living wages for workers, Greens have the courage and
independence necessary to take on the powerful corporate interests.
The Federal Elections Commission recognizes the Green
Party of the United States as the official Green Party National
Committee. We are partners with the European
Federation of Green Parties and the Federation
of Green Parties of the Americas.
The Green Party decision making body is the National
Committee, composed of delegates from each accredited state party.
State NC representatives and other committee participants are chosen by
each state party.
The Green Party of the United States was formed in
2001 as a reincarnation of the older Association of State Green Parties
(1996-2001). Our initial goal was to help existing state parties
grow and to promote the formation of parties in all 51 states and
colonies. Helping state parties is still our primary goal.
As the Green Party National Committee
we will devote our attention to establishing a national Green presence in
politics and policy debate while continuing to facilitate party growth and
action at the state and local level.
Green Party growth has been rapid since our founding
in 2001and Green candidates are winning
elections throughout the U.S. In 2004, the Green Party National
Convention nominated David
Cobb and Pat LaMarche for the Green Presidential ticket.
We are grassroots activists, environmentalists,
advocates for social justice, nonviolent resisters and regular citizens
who've had enough of corporate-dominated politics.
