Greetings, Friend:
We have two important updates for you for the North Carolina
Green Party.
NCGP 2021 Statewide Winter Gathering Feb. 13 on
Zoom
Join us for the North Carolina Green Party's Statewide Winter
Gathering on Saturday, February 13, from 1:00 to 6:00 p.m. on Zoom.
Preregister
at our website. All NCGP members are encouraged to
attend. Nonmember prospects who are interested in joining the NCGP are
also welcome to attend as observers, though only members may
participate and vote on party business. If you would like to
participate in the meeting with full voting privileges, you must join
the NCGP as a dues-paying member by Friday, February 12.
The NCGP is a membership-based, dues-paying organization and
political party. To learn more about joining the NCGP, and the
difference between a Green registered voter and an NCGP member, please
see below.
Contact Gov. Cooper Today to Get the NCGP Back on the
Ballot
We need your help: Can you contact Governor Cooper and ask for
Executive Relief for the Green Party and other alternative parties due
to the Covid-19 pandemic?
This is a time-sensitive request and cannot wait—please send
your Covid-relief letter to Cooper
today. We've provided a sample message to Cooper
at that link for you to copy and paste.
The NC Greens and other alternative parties got booted off the
ballot after the 2020 general election because we missed various
retention metrics, but this was largely due to Covid, which prevented
the Greens from all-out campaigning and petition-signature gathering
in 2020, and the pandemic will remain a dangerous barrier to our
petitioning efforts in 2021 to regain ballot status. Your letters to
Cooper will pressure him to acknowledge that forcing the Greens to
petition in person during Covid would be an undemocratic and dangerous
demand in violation of his own Executive Orders.
Become a Member!
The North Carolina Green Party
refuses all corporate contributions, so dues-paying members play a
vital role ensuring our state and local organizations have the
resources needed to build an independent party for people and planet
free from the influence of the 1 percent.
Who can Become
a Member of the North
Carolina Green Party? North Carolina residents who are registered to
vote as “Green” when the NCGP has a ballot line and “Unaffiliated”
when it doesn't are eligible to become members of the NCGP after they
have affirmed Green Party principles (see our 10
Key Values and
platform), set their own dues rate using a
budget-friendly sliding scale, and initiated payment of those dues.
You choose your own dues level on the honor system, based on what you
can pay. Note: Residents who are ineligible to vote due to state
disenfranchisement (including but not limited to reasons such as age,
criminal record, or noncitizen/undocumented status) may also become
members. Email the NCGP secretary at [email protected]
if you feel you are ineligible to vote due to state
disenfranchisement. All NCGP members, with the exception of
noncitizens, shall pay modest annual dues.
