True Democracy

Greens want to bring grassroots democracy to the United States, to counteract what Thomas Jefferson called the “excesses of the monied interests.” 

Greens support a ban on corporate political contributions and an end to corporate personhood.

Greens support open, honest and accountable government and civic institutions.

We support electoral reforms, such as proportional representation and instant runoff voting, to increase the power of voters to elect people who represent them.

Public financing of campaigns will help give us a government we can be proud of — one that can’t be bought.

Greens intend to become an important political force in this country, and to present candidates for election at every level of government.
