Who's ready for a national, Bernie Sanders inspired Progressive Party? 

Good news! Here is our initial platform:

  1. NO CORPORATE MONEY
  2. Economic Justice
  3. Social Justice
  4. Environmental Justice
  5. Healthcare is a Human Right

We want to point out that a more robust and/or specific platform will be created democratically by a new party when the time comes for a national convention. The reason we don't have a broader platform yet is because we want our platform to have broad input. We also want to point out that POLICY is different than PLATFORM. That is, "a livable wage" is platform, and "$15/hr" is policy.

The Vermont Progressive Party was founded in 1981 around Bernie Sanders’ first mayoral victory in Burlington, Vermont. They now have the nation's highest ranking elected third party official, Vermont's Lieutenant Governor, Progressive David Zuckerman. They are one of the strongest and most successful third parties in the country and it is our aim to replicate their success nationally by building state parties from the grassroots up; by sticking to the issues, by empowering people, and by taking back our democracy.

**Disclaimer**
National Progressive Party is not a formal affiliate of the Vermont Progressive Party and never has been. We simply see that their model works and plan to implement it nation wide.

    “The current gestalt of politics in in the United States can be compared to a greek tragedy. While Bernie may not have prevailed against the opposing forces of the established oligarchy, his rise in popularity and the strong divide on demographic lines is proof that a new viable major party is needed. That party is the National Progressive Party. The time is now to join the re-emergence of the Progressive movement and create a government that is best for all.”

    “I endorse the Campaign to fund the National Progressive Party because it is high time to break the bond of duopoly that has been created by the Democratic & Republican Parties. I believe that with proper time and funds, this party will be well positioned to take on the establishment of both the old parties.”

    “I am excited to see such a strategic, focused effort effort to build new state parties, modeled after the very successful VT Progressive Party. It is time. The two major parties are killing our country. This is the transformation we need.”

    “I endorse this campaign to launch the National Progressive Party because it's well past time that there was a major opposition party in the US. The Republicans and Democrats are always "old boss... same as the new boss" with different branding and hot buttons to keep their respective bases stirred up enough to not notice that both parties are working for the same corporations and not for them. We will work for YOU because we ARE you.”
