Greetings Fellow Greens and Green Supporters! 

I am so excited to tell you that our candidates' campaigns are off and running!  Several candidates have received endorsements from some prominent organizations such as Our Revolution and Action Together, NEPA. If you want to help our candidates win, we have campaigns throughout the state in NEPA, SEPA, and Western PA, as well as our three state-wide candidates.  You can help with web management, media relations, positions research and writing, video production, candidate scheduling, cold calling, opposition research, relations with the Green Party, driving, printing, endorsement solicitation, relations with labor unions, and as poll workers on Nov 6th.  You can sign up through GreenWave at https://www.gpofpa.org/committees_greenwave. 

September 21st marks the United Nations' International Day of Peace. The theme for the International Day of Peace in 2018 is “The Right to Peace - The Universal Declaration of Human Rights at 70”, celebrating the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The United Nations promotes 17 Sustainable development goals to bring about peace. When I read about these, they sounded very familiar. “The Sustainable Goals cover a broad range of issues, including poverty, hunger, health, education, climate change, gender equality, water, sanitation, energy, environment and social justice.” Doesn’t this sound GREEN to you?
