"Americans celebrate choice 364 days a year. Then on Election Day, anyone unsatisfied by the traditional Democratic or Republican offerings is deemed a spoiler." Maine shows a better way to do elections: #RankedChoiceVoting. thehill.com/opinion/campai…

Americans love choice - we have over 100 kinds of Oreo cookies alone. So why pretend that just 2 parties could ever represent over 300 million of us? Ranked Choice Voting would upgrade our voting system to allow more voices & more choices - which is what most Americans want!

Everyone agrees: every vote should count, voters should have more power than politicians, we should have more choices. So let’s make it happen! Upgrade our obsolete voting system to #ProportionalRepresentation. Voters in BC, Canada could show how: sightline.org/2018/11/29/can…

Dear CNN: Speaking up for Palestinian rights is not anti-Semitic or a threat to Israelis. As people concerned with freedom for the Palestinian people, and justice and equality for all people, we ask that you immediately rehire Marc Lamont Hill. codepink.org/marc_lamont_hi…

Let's take stock post-election: Wall Street still runs Washington, leading us to ecological collapse. But the growing momentum for Ranked Choice Voting & a Green New Deal shows the way to the Green uprising we need! Join the conversation TONIGHT 8pm ET at facebook.com/drjillstein/

Greens call on Congress to pass a REAL #GreenNewDeal that guarantees economic justice for all, rapidly phases out fossil fuels, creates democratic public ownership of energy, & cuts the massive military budget that wastes trillions to make us less secure. gp.org/green_party_ur…

BREAKING: Big win for Ranked Choice Voting in court as Trump-appointed judge finds the voting system upholds "one person, one vote". #RankedChoiceVoting, which the people of Maine voted for twice, has now survived a string of constitutional challenges. fairvote.org/_ranked_choice…

Ranked Choice Voting is on a winning streak! With RCV you can rank the choices on your ballot, so if your 1st choice doesn't win, your vote counts for your 2nd choice - freeing you to vote for what you truly want. Congrats Maine - now let's get #RankedChoiceVoting everywhere!

Luxembourg is the first country in the world to make public transportation free, after a historic surge powered Luxembourg's Green Party into a left-green governing coalition. Luxembourg is also poised to be the first European country to legalize cannabis. theguardian.com/world/2018/dec…

Belgium's Green Party made historic gains in local elections, taking charge of several cities for the first time. A global movement based on peace, justice, democracy & ecology, Greens won big in 2018 in Germany, Luxembourg, Rwanda, Canada, Iceland & more. france24.com/en/20181015-gr…

Polls show landslide support for longtime Green positions like #MedicareForAll, a #GreenNewDeal & #LegalizeCannabis. No wonder the DNC & RNC collude with CPD to shut independents out - they'd rather lock us up than let the people hear our message.

The US military is the world's largest polluter & sucks up trillions that could be spent on transitioning to a sustainable economy. Here's why Green New Deal advocates need to challenge the out-of-control cost of the war machine: commondreams.org/views/2018/12/…

The Pentagon takes over half the US federal discretionary budget. If we spend billions on a Green New Deal instead of wasting trillions on weapons & war, we'll make wars for oil obsolete - and make the world a safer place for all future generations of life on Earth. #GreenNewDeal

End the war in Syria. End the war in Afghanistan. End the war in Iraq. End the war in Yemen. End the war in Somalia. End the war in Libya. End the war in Niger. #NoMoreWar

Democratic leadership has blocked an insurgent effort to create a Green New Deal committee - and doubled down on taking money from fossil fuel corporations responsible for the growing climate crisis. #GreenNewDeal huffingtonpost.com/entry/kathy-ca…

Deep gratitude to all who fearlessly speak truth to power in these times of widespread deceit. If war can be started by lies, maybe peace can be started by truth. Keep using your voice to make sure the truth gets out.✌🏼

House Dems shot down the insurgent push for a Green New Deal. They'd rather keep taking oil money than support a wildly popular program to create millions of good jobs & protect our children from climate meltdown. Yes, Democrats have failed us once again. commondreams.org/news/2019/01/0…
