Pacific Green Party of Oregon

From Bill McKibben, Co-Founder, 350.org:

Friends

I immediately added my name to this open letter to President Obama calling for bold climate action, and I hope you will too. Add your name here.

We, the People of the United States of America, reject the U.S. Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling, and move to amend our Constitution to firmly establish that money is not speech, and that human beings, not corporations, are persons entitled to constitutional rights.

Read the Oregon Live article regarding another sellout by the Democratic Party. Also Eugene Register Guard article opposing coal trains. And remember, the "free trade" agreements he references are another Democratic Party sellout.

Suzia Aufderheide appointed by Convention to
replace Chris Mason as a national delegate to the GPUS.

Convention nominated Candy Neville as the PGP US Senate after two
hours of discussion. Vote was by consensus. A consideration of a run
for Governor was discussed and it was decided that a US Senate run was
best for her. Stand-aside: Randy Prince
