Howie Hawkins and Angela Walker, candidates for the Green Party nomination for president and vice president
 

Hi ,

It is always good to remind ourselves why we do the things that we do. In a time where our two-capitalist-party system has become more corrupt than ever, we look to the two fundamental goals that
guide this campaign to create a system that enables its people to have a voice.

Goal 1:
We are building the Green Party as an activist and viable opposition to the tyranny of corporate rule.

To do this, we have to get on the ballot.  We still need to get on the ballot in several states:

  • Washington needs 1,000 signatures by July 25, which will cost $3,000
  • Arkansas needs 1000 signatures by August 3, which will cost $3,000
  • Kansas needs 5000 signatures by August 3, which will cost $15,000
  • Nebraska needs 2500 signatures by August 3, which will cost $7,500

We need to hire petition gatherers NOW to make this happen, and we need your help to raise the money TODAY.

Goal 2:
To put our ecosocialist program for real political and economic democracy, civil liberties, social justice, ecological sustainability, and peace on to the public agenda.


We have to be honest about these things. The American economy no longer works for the majority of Americans. Millions of families and communities have been left behind while a small group of
billionaires continues to exploit them.

This is exactly why we are humbly asking you to make a federally-matched donation now (recommended $27) and join our cause to create sustainable and responsible change through an Ecosocialist Green New Deal!

Opportunities for this majority of Americans are becoming rarer and rarer as our two-party system continues to ignore this reality. In the coming decade, this problem will only get worse.

It’s time for a party that works for the people and not against us.

Pulling from a lifetime of experience fighting for the rights of the working class, Howie decided to commit his thoughts into a book and wrote The Case for an Independent Left Party.

Our current political establishment has offered no reasonable solutions to the challenges facing families today. These challenges include climate change, rampant violations of human rights, a lack of
healthcare, endless war, and more.

The truth that the capitalist oligarchy does not want you to know is this: 

We cannot solve the central problems of our time under a capitalist system.

Over 40% of Americans simply cannot afford an unexpected $400 bill. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to threaten the livelihoods of the working class and Trump doubles-down on his incompetent,
tone-deaf approach to handling this issue, it’s almost certain that this number has increased.

This campaign is about solving the greatest problems of our time by going straight to the source.

Our ask of you is a simple one –

Will you stand with Howie and his team against a broken system to build a new American economy that works for everyone from the bottom up?

Our fundraising comes from grassroots donations. Your donation matters and empowers us to continue to fight to be represented on every ballot in every state.

The time for talk has come and gone. Now is the time for taking massive action!

Thank you for standing with us!

Team Howie
