The heart of the New Progressive Alliance is the Unified Platform. It is the basis of our approving candidates, allies, and Public Comments on specific policy recommendations. It is also the basis of disapproving documentation on candidates and organizations at Don’t Let These People or Organizations Fool You. 

If you agree with us, then we as a 501c4 Educational Organization would like to help you. Please use Make Your Case to help you document with over 10,000 references which are continuously added to and updated as well as many other resources. You may use anything on our website without permission, though if it is helpful we hope you mention us to help others. Please let us know if you have any suggestions or additions.

Because we are in special consultative status with the U.N. Economic and Social Council we can offer volunteers a chance to attend meetings or write papers for the United Nations through the NPA. See So You Want to Volunteer for the United Nations. 

We can have Peace! We can put People first! We can begin reversing the damage unbridled greed has already caused our precious Planet! Are you truly fed up, ready to stop complaining and start channeling your anger toward building a new America?

It will take a lot. Voting is important, but not enough. The New Progressive Alliance can operate as a poor man's think tank and supply documentation, but that is also not enough. It will also take year round effort, organizing on and off the streets, and coordinating with people we may not like.  Click Volunteer to get started!

Former Minneapolis Mayoral candidate Doug Mann, running for Minneapolis School Board, 65A has endorsed the Unified Platform and earned our endorsement. He joins more than 60 independent and third-party candidates who have endorsed the platform's commonsense call for putting Peace, People and the Planet above profits. 

You'll find Mann's writings here.

 The New Progressive Alliance (NPA) s a 100-percent volunteer, educational organization comprised of ACTIVE ACTIVISTS dedicated to improving the lives of working men and women and their families by positively influencing public policy. We work to awaken Americans to the reality that only through supporting candidates who support our concerns will those concerns be met. Toward that end, we support the Unified Platform; participate in official public comment opportunities to regulatory agencies; and sponsor and partake in a host of events designed to raise public consciousness of the extent to which corporations maintain near-total control of the political and policy-making process in this country.

Visit this page often to learn what we're working on - and please, join our effort to put PEOPLE BEFORE PROFITS!

II. United Nations:

United Nations: The New Progressive Alliance  has been in special consultative status with the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) Council since 2015.  The NPA is a U.N. NGO (Non-Governmental Organization). If you would like to investigate participating with the New Progressive Alliance in UN activities with meetings or submitting papers, then just email us. See So You Want to Volunteer for the United Nations.

In 2012, the New Progressive Alliance (NPA) started by endorsing 54 candidates from 23 states who publicly endorsed and pledged to work for the commonsense policies outlined in the Unified Platform (UP).  This page provides more information about the brave men and women who are blazing the trail for the future of democracy in America. If you would like to join them check Elections and So You Want to Run for Office.  That trail is wholly different than that which the Democratic and Republican parties take us down election after election, with the same predictable result: A disenfranchised working class and ever-more enriched military-industrial-Wall Street complex.

We are a 501c4 educational organization, not a political party. We cannot help a candidate directly, but we can note by endorsement when a candidate pledges to support the Unified Platform. We can also disavow a candidate  when through his actions or statements it becomes clear he does not support the Unified Platform.

Also as a 501c4 educational organization, we are  moving towards becoming more of a think tank which supplies documentation to support people and organizations that back the Unified Platform. We will still list candidates that support the Unified Platform, but we will not seek them out.
