This Giving Tuesday please Support the Maryland Green Party!
The Maryland Green Party has had an amazing year of growth and activity. We expect 2018 to be even better but we need your help.
Our most important electoral win was the election of Reverend Annie Chambers as delegate to the Resident Advisory Board representing Douglass Homes in Baltimore.

Greens vs. The Chicago Machine
Chicago is famous for its "machine" system: elected or appointed officials control massive, taxpayer-funded administrations full of jobs and contracts, which are handed out to keep supporters loyal come election time. Whether those jobs and contracts actually benefit the taxpayers, or address critical civic issues...that's not really the machine's concern.
