Good news. The Peace Action Committee (which we called GPAX) from about 10 years ago was essentially shut down by a person or persons obsessed with bylaws and procedure. Let's hope that doesn't happen again.
GPAX was very helpful when the Green Party's Media Committee issued public statements on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and related topics.

I'm happy - delighted, in fact - to send this on to the handful of Green contacts I have. I hope you also post to Facebook.
You won't mind, I know, if a socialist joins in support of this most urgent action - even if I wouldn't be doing it within the Greens, but within the socialist groups.
The current situation underlines how urgent it is to confront the danger of the corporate military state - headed now by someone as irresponsible as Trump.
Peace and solidarity,
David McReynolds

1 hrDear Friends, please share to other Green pages and list-serves:Call to Re-Constitute Green Peace Action CommitteeWe the undersigned seek to re-constitute the Green Peace Action Committee, a former standing committee of the Green Party of the United States that has been inactive for several years.At a time when our nation is committing brazenly illegal, immoral and indefensible acts of war in Syria, Yemen, elsewhere in the Middle East and Africa and engaging in dangerous acts of brinksmanship with Russia, China and North Korea, it is essential that the Green Party play a strong role in building a more effective peace movement and stand tall as a clear and uncompromising voice against war, the military-industrial complex and the institutional causes of war.We call upon other concerned Greens to volunteer to join our Committee, so that it can be activated and recognized by the GP-US and begin to engage in this vital task. Please note that you will need to seek appointment or approval by your state party before you can join this Committee in an official capacity.If interested in being a part of this important work, please contact Interim Co-Chairs Deanna Dee Taylor atdeedeelivesgreen@ greenpartyutah.com and Rich Whitney atrichwhitney at frontier.com.Please note that our next conference call is set for Wednesday, August 16th, at 5pm Eastern Time. Please contact the Interim Co-Chairs if you are willing and able to participate in the call.Signed,Deanna Dee Taylor, Utah
