During 2004, as progressives
throughout the Nation gear up for a tough presidential
campaign, the Green Party of the United States will
continue its grassroots effort to build a viable third
party. The Green Party is the only party with a
long-term vision that will not succumb to short-term
politics. Beyond the temporary fix of a change in
leadership in November 2004, the party has clear
solutions to "lesser of two evil" choices and
a divided progressive majority. As our two reigning
"Leaning Tower of Pisa" political parties
shift further to the right, more and more progressives,
women, people of color and working poor are left with
little, if any, representation in government.
The Green Party offers realistic,
attainable solutions to restore our democracy and
protect our valuable public resources. Throughout
the country, more than 200
elected Greens are implementing policies and
legislation that mirror the Green Party platform. These
elected Greens better reflect the diversity of which
America is comprised and share the values
that are important to most Americans. The local, state
and national Greens will continue to push for systemic
reform of our electoral system. We will fight for Instant
Runoff Voting, Proportional
Representation and the elimination of corporate
financing of elections.
We're growing! Welcome to the fastest growing political
party on Earth! Nearly a half a million Greens in
America are linked to Greens
all over the world - and we are organizing to stop
destructive economic policies driven by corporate
interests and US military might.
A financial gift to the Green Party is a powerful way to
restore democracy to America. If you are feeling that
your vote doesn't count, that you are not represented in
government and that the problems of the world are
insurmountable - then you will be inspired by the work
of the Green Party. A contribution of ANY SIZE will
bring our shared vision for reform one step closer to
reality. Please send your contribution today.
Please consider joining our 1000
For 1000 Campaign, designed to help us raise $1
million. The 1000 For 1000 Campaign unites small, medium
and large donors in a single fundraising effort, by
allowing donations from as little as $10/month for 100
months, all the way up to a single donation of $1000 or
more. Click here to view the various options. Your 1000
For 1000 donation can also be shared with your state
Green Party, assuming your party is affiliated with the
USGP and state law allows (most do). Just check off the
box that indicates this when you make your 1000 For 1000
donation.
We know that some people cannot
afford to give even $10 month to the Green Party, or are
not ready to do so at this time. And we know that some
contributors can give more than $1000, even up to
$20,000 (the maximum we allow if you share half with
your state party). We ask that all people give based on
their ability to donate, as our continued growth depends
on this. Please donate the amount you are comfortable
giving. Whatever amount you give, it will be greatly
appreciated and put to good use.
Whichever amount you choose to
donate, you will be giving a great boost to building
your party and showing that we can raise the money
necessary - without taking a penny from corporations or
PACs - to run serious, platform-based campaigns with
credible Green Party candidates. With the United States
at permanent war and our constitutional rights at risk,
there has never been a greater need than now for the
Green Party.
