Let Green Party voice be heard

The presidential candidate for the Green Party, Jill Stein, visited Tucson on March 10 and spoke to a large group. And apparently — shhhh — it was secret.

As usual, the news agencies only cover two parties, ignoring a true progressive candidate with real solutions regarding education, student finance, jobs, economy, poverty, health care, war, human rights and climate change.

Stein’s Green New Deal tackles these issues head-on and, after Bernie Sanders is rebuffed by the Democrats, she will be the only progressive candidate.

With 48 million college students buried in debt, she proposes elimination of student debt. (Believe me, I know how it is to serve Sallie Mae and FedLoan!)

To the millions of us demanding a stable economy not based on war and weapons sales, we need and have the right to hear all candidates.

Cover all views for a real democracy.

This is where the Sanders supporters should put their energy for real change in Washington DC!
