I am applying to be a California delegate to the GPUS. I would interpret my responsibility as a delegate to represent the will of Green voters of California. I am committed to transparency and democratic procedure and will work to ensure that the workings of the GPUS are known and accessible to as many Greens as possible.


I would consider it a goal to ensure that as many Greens as possible are aware of the opportunity to have input to the decisions made by the GPUS, and that proposed changes are considered as widely and deeply in the party as possible.
