The DC Statehood Green Party (STG) was founded in 1971 as the DC Statehood Party, later joining w/the Green Party of DC in 1999; and is a @GreenPartyUS affiliate
While the STG champions a variety of socio-political causes, its chief issue (upon which the party was founded) is unequivocal statehood for DC

"In these 50 years since the institution of Home Rule for DC, we demand unequivocal statehood which would give us democracy & self-government including:
· Local authority within the District over our three branches of government: legislative, executive & judicial
· The elimination of all Federal government committees & sub-committees that have oversight or appropriation power over DC government
· Complete and equal voting representation in the United States Congress"

The @GreenPartyUS supports @railroadworkers & calls on Congress to enact paid sick leave & expand workers' rights rather than force an anti-worker contract. The Green platform calls for at least one month of paid leave, flexible work schedules & more. https://t.co/is6hB2fAmh
