Join the progressive movement of citizens working to spread the message of the GREEN PARTY! We are now screening for candidates who will run for local offices throughout Suffolk County this year! Brand-new to the idea and getting anxiety just thinking about it?
Don’t worry, nobody feels 100% ready the first time – come get your feet wet and learn about what it takes to run a campaign, along with a team of activists thirsty for change! When a group of ridiculously wealthy individuals hijack the Democratic and Republican parties, giving us an illusion of choice, Americans lose their freedom to elect leaders who will truly represent the working class and an ecologically sustainable future.
We have a line on the ballot and you can help give voters a choice! It all starts at the local level!
