Green Party of PA News Highlights Greetings Fellow Greens and Green Supporters! Yesterday the Green Party of Pennsylvania filed for ballot access for six great PA candidates for the November election.  These candidates offer an alternative choice for those voters who refuse to support a continuation of the same old corporate-sponsored politics that perpetuate the destruction of our environment, the polarization and destabilization of our economy, the systematic oppression and imprisonment of persons of color, and the unending export of war and death throughout the world; all in the name of profit no matter which party is in power.  I am honored and excited to be a part of these Green campaigns that offer concrete recommendations to reverse the damage and lead us toward a future where people are valued above profits.
