Grassroots Democracy

Grassroots Democracy

One of the Four Pillars of the Green Party is Grassroots Democracy. 

The power of civic action is an antidote to the corporate control of so much of our lawmaking and regulating. The pervasive abuse imposed by corporate power increasingly undermines our democracy, but the Green Party seeks to rekindle the democratic flame. 

To this extent, we believe in widespread electoral reform, corruption reduction measures, media reform to embrace free speech, and enforcement of human rights.
