The Oakland Greens envision a local alliance of candidates, political parties, and organizations that come together to support a progressive path for the city. The idea for this alliance comes from the Richmond Progressive Alliance, which is a partnership of voters and candidates from Green, Democratic, and Peace and Freedom parties united for a more sustainable and economically just city. We would like to join with other groups who share similar values to elect candidates that work for the people and push our currently local elected officials to vote for and put forth legislation that is in our best interests.
