New Horizon for the Green-Rainbow Party

Hey there Greens, did you melt this summer? With the climate crisis rearing its ugly head, we've got work to do. As we say in the movement for People, Planet, Peace- climate justice is social justice! We must join in coalition and camaraderie to resist authoritarianism and dismantle the systems of injustice that feed the ultra rich. Now is the time! Here's one way to do just that:

We have our exciting October Platform Convention in person coming up! This is such an important gathering of our Green community for potluck and overview of the GRP platform. This new, invigorating, and enlightening document shows that commitment we have to be the best electoral option for the people and planet!

Read through this email for more convention info, caucus application announcement, climate and environmental articles, and our book of the month!
