On this International Women's Day let's take a moment to honor the work of countless women around the world who are building the Green Party as a force for gender equity and eliminating the many injustices that disproportionately impact women -- ranging from war to pollution to poverty.

We are proud that Feminism is a Key Value of the Green Party of the United States and we continue to work to live up to that value, both within our organization and in the issues we fight for in the world.

Reminder!
