Justice for Zahid Chaudhry!

Posted on August 23, 2025August 23, 2025 by Green Party of Washington

Statement in Support of Zahid Chaudhry

We are outraged and deeply saddened by the unjust detention of Zahid Chaudhry, a disabled U.S. military veteran, community leader, and loving husband, who has lived in this country for 25 years. Zahid came to the United States legally, wore the uniform of our military, and made enormous sacrifices in service to this nation. He sustained disabling injuries during military training in 2003, was medically discharged in 2005, and has since continued to serve his community as a dedicated member of Veterans for Peace.

It is unconscionable that someone who has risked his life for this country, who is married to a U.S. citizen, and who has built his entire life here, should face the threat of deportation. Detaining Zahid during a citizenship interview at the USCIS office in Tukwila, Washington, is a cruel betrayal of the values of justice, compassion, and respect for veterans.

This act is not only an attack on Zahid – it is an attack on every immigrant who has served, every family that has sacrificed, and every community that believes in fairness and dignity. We condemn this injustice in the strongest possible terms.

We stand in full solidarity with Zahid and his family. We demand his immediate release from ICE detention and an end to the deportation proceedings against him. Zahid belongs here, with his wife, his community, and the country he has already given so much to.

We will not be silent while our government treats veterans and immigrants with such cruelty. We call on all people of conscience to speak out, organize, and demand justice for Zahid Chaudhry.

Justice for Zahid. Stop the deportations. Honor our veterans.

The Common Ground Declaration

Posted on June 30, 2025June 30, 2025 by Green Party of Washington

From the Green Party Archives

The Final Document of the Third Parties ’96 Conference
Washington, DC, June 4, 1995

WELCOME TO THE NEW MAINSTREAM!

The Third Parties ’96 Conference, with delegates from 26 independent political parties in the United States, on June 4, 1995, adopted the following draft Declaration of common principles. These statements were approved during two days of debate, negotiation, and compromise, using a modified full consensus process.

We believe this Common Ground Declaration is an important step toward more effective cooperation among our nation’s growing movement of independent third parties.

We who signed this Declaration did so as individuals. From this First Conference, and these First Principles, we believe, can grow broader and deeper political dialogue and closer alliances among third parties

These principles, we know, represent the views of a strong New Mainstream, which can successfully challenge the two-party stranglehold on political power in the United States. We welcome more participants to this process, and recognize that these draft principles are but a beginning. They are, we believe, a very good beginning indeed.

Third Parties ’96 Participants
At the George Washington University
Washington, DC
June 4, 1995

Our process encouraged open discussion and compromise, producing a large number of important issues on which our very diverse group of participants – including activists from green, libertarian, socialist, and populist parties – were able to reach complete agreement. As a result, many statements in this Declaration were adopted by full consensus. These are numbered below. Other items were not unanimously approved, but were favored by super-majorities of at least four-fifths (80%) of the delegates. A few items were adopted with majorities of three-fifths (60%).

Seattle Police Clash with Trans Rights Protesters at Anti-Trans Rally

Posted on May 26, 2025May 26, 2025 by Green Party of Washington

By Michael Doyle, Green Party of Washington

On Saturday, May 24, 2025, Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood became the epicenter of a tense confrontation between law enforcement and protesters during a conservative Christian rally organized by Mayday USA. The event, held at Cal Anderson Park—a hub of Seattle’s LGBTQ+ community—was met with a vigorous counter-protest by approximately 500 individuals opposing the rally’s anti-trans and anti-queer rhetoric.

The rally, part of Mayday USA’s “#Dontmesswithourkids” tour, was perceived by many as provocatively held in the city’s LGBTQ+ neighborhood. Protesters clashed with police, leading to 23 arrests during a five-hour confrontation that involved shoving, thrown objects, and pepper spray.

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell suggested the rally was intentionally provocative and noted anarchists infiltrated the protest, instigating violence.

Margaret Elisabeth, Chair of the Green Party of Washington and a transgender woman, condemned the police response, stating, “The disproportionate use of force against peaceful protesters by Seattle police is unacceptable. We must stand united against hate and ensure the safety and dignity of all individuals, especially those from marginalized communities.”

The events of May 24 have sparked a broader conversation about the balance between free speech and the protection of vulnerable communities, highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by the transgender community in the face of rising political and social tensions.

GPAX Statement on Global Emergency

Posted on April 24, 2025April 24, 2025 by Green Party of Washington

The Green Party Declares a Global Environmental and Peace Emergency!

The threats to life on our beautiful planet are multiple and connected. Every day the world moves closer to the edge of extinction. Wildfires, floods, droughts and heatwaves threaten every corner of the planet as the climate crisis spins out of control.

At the same time, forever wars rage with the US ongoing proxy wars in Ukraine and Gaza that have killed tens of thousands and threaten to engulf the whole world, with the ultimate possibility of a catastrophic nuclear war. The change of administrations in the United States, which signals a move from a 20th-century covert imperialism to its historically traditional overt form, may prove to be an even greater threat.

The focal point for these concerns continues to be Gaza and the West Bank in occupied Palestine. Despite a fragile ceasefire (at the time of this writing) the US and Israel continue to create an ever more dangerous international emergency in pursuit of a Greater Israel. The humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to be dire, with the only proposed “solution” being the ethnic cleansing of 2 million people and the creation of an Israeli Riviera. This genocide has not been about Israel’s security but, in fact, threatens the safety of Israelis. And it has been a violation of international humanitarian law and a grave injustice to the Palestinian people.

In pursuit of Israel’s goals, thousands of Lebanese have died and hundreds of locations in Syria have been bombed by the U.S. and by Israel with U.S.-supplied munitions. Since September 2024, both the U.S. and Israel have taken deliberate steps to isolate Iran and its allies in the region. A war with Iran would be disastrous for us all.

A recent poll indicated that some 75% of the global population wants an end to the genocide in Gaza and the continued U.S.-supported Israeli violence in the region. The world now sees the violence that has been part of Israel’s settler colonialist project since 1948. The US must show it cares more about the people living in the US and the safety and security of the rest of the world than supporting Israel’s agenda in the Middle East.

Now, several countries face the threat by the Trump administration of being absorbed into the U.S. empire, a goal which can only be realized through military force.

All this violence increases the risk of a wider war and ultimately a nuclear war and should put the whole world on alert. The situation is critical and potentially explosive, literally and figuratively.

The Green Party US Peace Action Committee (GPAX) calls again for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, Palestine that continues after the release of hostages and prisoners and prohibits Israel’s incursions into the West Bank and calls for an end to the Israeli occupation.

GPAX calls for the declaration of a GLOBAL EMERGENCY. More needs to be done to protect the population of Gaza and the West Bank by ending incursions, sieges and forced starvation and returning control of their lands to the Palestinian people.

GPAX calls for a real ceasefire in Lebanon, not one that gives the U.S. more power to intervene in the country and region.

We also call for an end to U.S. and Israeli presence in Syria, to return sovereignty to the Syrian people. The U.S., Turkiye, and Israel need to get out of the way, so that the Syrian people, together with a rejuvenated U.N., can work to guarantee that all peoples in Syria are respected.

The Green Party joins hands in solidarity with the thousands of students who have been threatened for standing up for justice! We call for everyone to get involved in their local peace movement in whatever ways they can. Building on past efforts, the Green Party will make a major effort to work with other progressives and radicals in building the ongoing events and actions, including support for the BDS (Boycott, Divest and Sanction) movement. Our main goal is to build a bigger and more massive peace movement, in order to challenge and stop U.S. imperialism.

GPAX also calls for resistance to the Trump government’s bellicose policies and those that attack constitutionally guaranteed freedoms. We do this understanding perfectly well that the Democrats laid the groundwork for this moment.

The Green Party should, thus, join in building multi-issue coalitions from the grassroots uniting the many struggles while linking them to the peace issue. GPAX will work to increase our involvement with other key national peace groups: Jewish Voice for Peace, Veterans For Peace, UNAC, etc. Along with state Green parties and other like-minded organizations, we can work to develop these connections.

GPAX urges the peace movement to unite in support of the Palestinians as well as to end the war in Ukraine and the threats to Iran and China. There are too many places where people are facing forced starvation and on-going violence, including the Congo, Sudan, Haiti, Cuba, South and Central America, where US interference is causing tremendous hardship for the people.

It is well past time for the world to rely on diplomacy and negotiations, instead of continued violence and war. The people demand it and the Earth requires it.

GPAX Statement on Global Emergency

Defending Education & Building Alternatives in Washington State

Posted on April 17, 2025April 27, 2025 by Green Party of Washington

By Cody Mahar-Kjos, Oceana Baker, Giuliana Natale, and Michael Doyle – Green Party of NE Washington

The Crisis Is Here—Will We Fight Back?

With Washington State facing a $13 billion budget shortfall and the U.S. Department of Education officially dissolved, public education is collapsing. Federal education funding is gone. Schools will close, teachers will be laid off, and students—especially from working-class and marginalized communities—will be abandoned.

This is by design. The ruling class has never valued public education because educated, empowered people threaten their control. They want learning to be a privilege, not a right. They want students drowning in debt, not fighting for change.

But we refuse to let them destroy our future.

The Green Party of Washington must take action now to:

✅ Expose the crisis—Tell the truth about what’s happening to our schools.

✅ Organize resistance—Rallies, protests, and mass action to demand real funding.

✅ Build alternatives—A new education system that puts power in the hands of communities.

We don’t have time to wait. The future of our students—and our movement—depends on what we do next.

The Plan: From Awareness to Action

1. Demand Immediate Alternative Funding for Education

If the state claims there is “no money” for education, we must expose their lies and fight for new funding sources:

Progressive Taxation & Closing Corporate Loopholes

Tax the ultra-wealthy—A 1% wealth tax on millionaires and billionaires could generate billions for education.

End corporate tax loopholes—Washington State gave $2.7 billion in corporate tax breaks in 2023 alone. That money could fully fund schools.

Increase capital gains taxes—Make the wealthy pay their fair share.

Redirect State Spending from Police & Military Contracts

Defund bloated police budgets and redirect that money into education, mental health services, and community programs.

End subsidies to war profiteers—Washington is home to major defense contractors like Boeing that receive billions in subsidies while schools are left to rot.

Use Publicly Owned Cannabis & Green Energy Revenue

Take back control of marijuana tax revenue—Much of it currently disappears into the general fund instead of being used for education.

Publicly owned green energy projects could generate sustainable, long-term funding for education.

If politicians refuse to act, they expose themselves as enemies of working-class students and families.

2. Organize a Mass Movement to Defend Public Education

Flood social media with testimonies from teachers, students, and parents.

Hold public town halls and mass rallies to demand action from lawmakers.

Organize school walkouts, teacher strikes, and mass demonstrations—direct action gets results.

Build alliances with labor unions, working-class movements, and student activists.

3. Build a Community-Led Education System

If the state continues to fail, we must take education into our own hands.

Community-Led Education Alternatives

Worker-run and parent-run schools—Cooperative schools where teachers, parents, and students make decisions democratically, completely independent from the state.

Community homeschooling networks—Families and volunteers pool resources to educate children collectively in small, community-driven learning groups.

Education cooperatives—Community-funded schools where tuition is kept low or free through grassroots fundraising, mutual aid, and nonprofit models.

Mutual Aid & Free Community Education Centers

Convert public libraries, community centers, and empty buildings into free educational hubs run by volunteers, retired educators, and community members.

Create a Green Party education fund—A grassroots, people-powered fund to support community schools and homeschooling efforts.

Develop free online education resources—The Green Party and its allies can build open-source curriculums so students have access to high-quality education outside the state system.

Partner with labor unions and worker-owned businesses to fund vocational training and apprenticeships.

We cannot rely on the state to fix this crisis—we must build a decentralized, community-powered education system that puts people before profit.

The Next Steps: Organize. Mobilize. Win.

Assign regional coordinators to oversee actions and outreach — contact us to get involved.

Launch an immediate social media and press campaign to expose the crisis — campaign presentation.

Schedule the first major town hall or protest event within 30 – 90 days — join us to make it happen!

Begin working with educators and activists to build alternative schooling options — we need your support!

This is our moment to prove that education is a human right, not a privilege. If we don’t fight, who will? If we don’t lead, who will?

The Green Party of Washington must be at the forefront of this battle. We are the ones who believe in people over profit, justice over greed, and knowledge over ignorance.

Call to Action: Stand up. Speak out. Fight back.

For our students. For our communities. For our future.

The Green Party’s Demand for the ERA!

Posted on December 1, 2024December 1, 2024 by Green Party of Washington

The Green Party calls on President Biden to confirm and publish the Equal Rights Amendment in the US Constitution!

Please join us in our demand for the ERA!

The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) is the duly ratified 28th Constitutional Amendment that guarantees equal rights to all people regardless of sex.

The ERA might be our last chance to protect abortion rights before Trump takes office.

The constitutional requirements have already been met:

• The US House approved the ERA in 1971 with a bipartisan vote of 354–24. The Senate approved it in 1972 by another bipartisan vote of 84-8.

• In January 2020, Virginia became the 38th state to ratify the ERA, which means that 3/4 of all the states have ratified it.

So why isn’t the ERA in the Constitution now? Because Trump blocked it.

President Biden can unblock it. He can do so now in his remaining time in the White House.

Extending protections under the ERA is the most important thing President Biden can do right now.

The ERA has widespread support among registered Democrats and Republicans. The Green Party of the US endorses the ERA in its platform: “We support the equal application of the Constitution of the United States of America to all citizens, and therefore call for passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA).” (https://www.gp.org/social_justice#womens-rights)

Please Write, Text, Email, or Call the President Now! Here’s a sample Message/Letter:

Dear President Biden,

Article II.S3.3.1 requires you to ensure the National Archivist publishes fully ratified amendments to the US Constitution. Please do not leave office before you direct her to add the fully ratified 28th Amendment, the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), into the US Constitution, where it belongs.

As you know, the ERA ensures equality for all genders, equal pay, reproductive rights, and marriage equality.

There is a national outcry for you to save our basic equality and human rights. Project 2025 will roll back these rights even further unless you act now.

Congress and the states have spoken. The People of the USA have spoken. 85% of Americans still want the ERA.

Please publish the ERA immediately.

Sign with your Name/Signature and Address

National Texting & Writing Mobilizations:

Solidarity with Boeing Workers on Strike!

Posted on September 18, 2024October 12, 2024 by Green Party of Washington

Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein and running mate Butch Ware show solidarity with the workers on strike at Boeing!

Join the picket lines with Jill Stein, Butch Ware, Kshama Sawant, and Workers Strike Back on Thursday afternoon, 9/19/2024 at Ace Aviation, 289 E Perimeter Rd, Renton.

On Friday, 9/20/2024, Jill Stein and Butch Ware will join a panel at Raisbeck Hall (2015 Boren Ave, Seattle) with local and national Black Panther Party leaders to discuss Black community issues. This event is open to the public.

On Saturday, 9/21/2024, Jill and Butch will join the Rally and Fundraiser Music Festival at Seward Park from 5 PM to close.

Jill Stein and Butch Ware will also gather with local Greens on Saturday morning, 9/21/2024 (10 AM – 12 noon). More info here!

Last week, Boeing machinists represented by IAM 751 walked out after their contract expired and 96% of Boeing workers voted to strike for higher wages.

The workers on strike are standing up for their right to be compensated fairly for their hard work. The Green Party of Washington commends their courage and insistence on respect, and they deserve our full support. Higher pay for Boeing workers sets a higher pay standard for all workers in our region: a high school graduate whose workplace is not unionized but whose industry is 25% unionized is paid 5% more than similar workers in less unionized industries.

As Greens in Washington, our solidarity is crucial. We have an opportunity to make an outsized impact here in Washington by showing our support:

Join the Picket Lines: If you are able, please consider joining the workers on the picket lines wearing GREEN! Your presence will not only show your support but also strengthen the solidarity between the Green and Labor movements. Remember to bring food, water, and a sign! Picket lines will be ongoing during work hours at Boeing offices and plants throughout Washington including but not limited to:
1. Boeing Auburn Machine Fabrication MBU
2. Boeing Renton Factory – Join Jill Stein, Butch Ware, Kshama Sawant, and Workers Strike Back Thursday afternoon, 9/19/2024 (~ 4:30 PM)
3. Boeing Airfield in Seattle
4. Boeing Everett Factory
Spread the Word: Use your social media platforms and personal networks to raise awareness about the strike and the issues at stake. Consider writing a letter to the editor of your local newspaper in support of the striking workers. The more people understand the importance of this struggle, the stronger the bargaining position of the workers.
Contribute to Strike Funds: Many workers, particularly newer workers, are facing financial hardships during the strike. Contributions to strike funds can help provide essential support to those in need. The Green Party of Washington has agreed to match all donations up to $1,000 to our Boeing Workers Strike Support Fundraiser here:

DONATE – STRIKE SUPPORT

Look for updates from the Green Party of Washington about additional solidarity efforts to support Boeing workers as the strike unfolds.

Our solidarity is a powerful tool in this life-or-death fight. By standing together, we can help ensure that the workers at Boeing and beyond achieve the fair treatment they deserve. Let us show them we are united in our support and committed to fighting for their rights.

…

In solidarity,
