Setauket.  (Directions: http://www.uufsb.org/).  For more information about the Green Party, or about the April meeting, please contact Suffolk Chair Roger Snyder at (631) 351-5763.

With an automatic ballot line in New York, the Green Party of Suffolk will join with states across the country in putting their Presidential candidate on the November ballot.  Representatives from the Presidential campaigns and the Green Party US Senate campaigns have been invited to speak at the meeting. 

Party members are asked to bring their ideas for Green Party local and congressional  candidates and campaigns to the meeting.   Enrollees are encouraged to bring fliers, petitions, and announcements for the literature table. The meeting will also cover housekeeping items, such as: bylaws, election of officers, updating the county rules, fundraising planning, and reports about the state and national party.  Considering the early start of the meeting, please feel free to bring a bag lunch.

Green Party of Suffolk Chair Roger Snyder said:

The Green Party of Suffolk has been a consistent voice against corporate and government abuses. We are excited to join with citizen’s movements across the country protesting corporate corruption. Before Citizens United brought the destruction influence of corporate money in politics to the public attention, the Green Party has always had a policy of rejecting corporate funding.

The Green Party seeks to ratify Kyoto Protocols, pass Single Payer Universal Healthcare, and end all US Wars.  The incumbent Congresspeople in all three of Suffolk’s districts oppose all three.  The Green Party of Suffolk is seeking donations of $123.00 for the Suffolk 1,2,3 campaign to help reach out to all three districts. Political donations are not tax deductible.

The Green Party is a worldwide political movement. The four pillars of the Green Party are: Social and Economic Justice; Grassroots Democracy; Ecological Wisdom and Nonviolence/Peace.
