The Green Party of the United States is a federation
of state Green Parties. Committed to ecology, social justice grassroots
democracy and non-violence, Greens are renewing democracy in the United
States through community-based organizing 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 opposed to reform.
The Federal
Elections Commission recognizes the Green Party of the
United States as the official Green Party National Committee. The Green Party of
the United States is also a member of the Federation
of Green Parties of the Americas and the Global
Greens.
The highest Green Party decision making body is the Green National
Committee, composed of delegates from each accredited state party
and caucus. We are grassroots activists, environmentalists, advocates
for social justice, nonviolent resisters and regular citizens who've
had enough of corporate-dominated politics. We devote our attention
to establishing a national Green presence
in politics and policy debates, while continuing to facilitate party
growth and action at the state and local level.
The Green Party of the United States was formed in 2001
as an outgrowth of the 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. Our growth has been rapid since our founding
and Green candidates are winning elections throughout
the U.S.
