Green Party News

For my Green Friends:


NEW JERSEY GREENS PICK WOLSKI FOR SENATE RUN; PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEES ROSEANNE BARR, JILL STEIN, KENT MESPLAY TO ADDRESS MARCH 17 CONVENTION

The Green Party of New Jersey is holding its 16th annual state convention, Saturday, March 17 at the Rutgers Labor Education Center in New Brunswick.

The convention will hear from Green Presidential nominees Roseanne Barr and Kent Mesplay, via Skype, and Jill Stein. Also, kicking off his Green campaign for U.S. Senate is Ken Wolski. As Director of the Coalition for Medical Marijuana-New Jersey, he was instrumental in getting a medical marijuana bill passed in the New Jersey legislature.

The convention, which is open to the public, runs from 9:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

According to Michael Spector, State Chair, Green Party primaries and conventions serve to increase interest and make it a serious alternative to Democrats and Republicans. The Green Party of the United States will be holding its Presidential Nominating Convention, July 25, in Baltimore.

“The Green Party appeals to those seeking a better world, voters who realize that their needs will never be considered by corporate power or its paid-off political representatives,” said Spector.

The Green politics movement is growing in country after country as social movements embrace the ideals of democracy, justice, ecology, and nonviolence. In the U.S. and in our state we have special challenges right now to defend labor rights, reduce growing disparities of wealth and income, re-orient budgetary priorities, and open up the electoral system to “more voices and more choices.” Building the Green Party has become an imperative and we urge you to get involved!
