The New Progressive Alliance is a 100-percent volunteer, educational organization dedicated to positively influencing public policy. Toward that end, we support the Unified Platform; participate in official public comment opportunities to regulatory agencies; and help people and organizations make their progressive case with Make your Case by using documentation which is continuously updated.

1. News:
Publishing here means showing a reference to an article. We publish in Facebook at the New Progressive Alliance, Leftist Third Party and Independent Candidates, Greens Discuss the Issues, Truth Bomb Activists, Washington Best Democracy, "People, Planet, Peace" and "Progressives, Real Greens, and Socialists of Colorado." Because of problems with privacy and censorship on Facebook, we also publish on X, formerly Twitter, under the New Progressive Alliance. Connections to all of our allies may be found here.
-
In December we published “The climate crisis has a price — and it is a $391 million a day” and the NPA article “Cost of Environmental Destruction” with over 275 references. There is a cost both monetarily and to humanity for environmental destruction.
-
In December we published “The Economy” with a companion article “Economic Graphs and Videos” with a combined total of over 1,750 references. Though economics is a dry subject, there is a very real human cost to getting economic policy wrong.
-
In November we published the two articles “Wind and solar break records in Australia; Coal hits lowest point in 100 years” and the NPA article “We can power with renewable energy right now” with over 415 references. There are no technical, scientific, or financial obstacles to going with 100% sustainable energy.
-
In November we published the two articles “Poverty in America Has Strong Structural Roots That Some People Profit From” and the NPA article “Poverty is Getting Worse” with over 300 references. Poverty is getting much worse thanks to the policies of both parties. All indications are that poverty is not only getting worse, it is approaching third world status in many areas. We can ill afford to ignore these dangers.
-
In November we published the two articles “Australians Call to End Long Persecution of WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange” and the NPA article “The War on Whistleblowers” with over 590 references. We need to evaluate who our real heroes are. We need to acknowledge those who reveal a crime are not worse criminals than those who commit a crime.
-
In November we published the YouTube video “Honest Government Ad | Israel & Gaza.” Progress will happen only when we can get beyond the good guy/bad guy dichotomy and recognize more than one truth.
-
In November we published “The 2023 state of the climate report: Entering uncharted territory.” This is an issue most media ignore.
-
In November we published “How criminalization is being used to silence climate activists across the world.” This is a disturbing trend.
- The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative is a global effort to foster international cooperation to accelerate a transition to clean energy for everyone, end the expansion of coal, oil and gas, and equitably phase out existing production in keeping with what science shows is needed to address the climate crisis. The New Progressive Alliance has endorsed this initiative.
-
In November we published the New Progressive Alliance Article “Continuing Middle East War Crimes.” Targeting civilians is wrong no matter who does it. War crimes are equally wrong if done by the United States as exposed by Julian Assange, by Israel, or by Hamas. Many believe it is a right based upon who is doing it.
-
In November we published the YouTube video “Mega Tesla battery in Australia helps shut down coal and gas power plants.” We have the means to transition to renewable energy right now for less than fossil fuel dependence.
-
In November we published our NPA article “Civil Rights” with over 690 references. We do not become a safer or stronger nation through civil rights violations. We all should be concerned about the ever increasing number of rights we are losing that this article documents.
-
In October we published the YouTube video “eBay violates Clean Air Act selling engine devices that cause cancer.” Many people are either profoundly stupid or deliberately choose evil.
-
In October we published a Juice Media video about with a conversation with David Suzuki and his activist daughter. The United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom all seem to have two major parties.
-The “Shit Party” which openly backs the fossil fuel monopoly with laws and subsidies.
-The “Shit Lite Party” which pretends to be environmentalist but secretly backs the fossil fuel monopoly with laws and subsidies.
This video shows both the danger we are in and illustrates successful local efforts for change.
-
In October we published references to the two books “Our Fragile Moment – How lessons from Earth’s past can help us survive the Climate Crisis” by Dr. Michael Mann and “The Deadly Rise of Anti-Science – A Scientist’s Warning” by Dr. Peter Hotez. These two books illustrate the danger of ridiculing science and education.
-
In October we published “Business Is Booming.” The United States has a poor record of getting into wars for “humanitarian” purposes.
-
In October we published “Electrifying a Fraction of Vehicles in the Lower Great Lakes Could Save Over a Thousand Lives Annually.” Choices have consequences.
-
In October we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Killing and Harassment of Environmentalists is Increasing” with over 65 references and “Environmental activists killed at a rate of one every other day in 2022.” These two articles show the violence against environmentalists continues.
-
In October we published “Cop Cities in a Militarized World.” This is a disturbing trend.
-
In October we published “Honest Government Ad | Canada.” This is a great presentation that with humor in less than 5 minutes shows the environmental corruption which Canada shares with most other countries.
-
In October we published “Ken Burns on why the Republican Party completely changed.” In the United States both the Republican and Democratic Parties have severely failed in their duties.
-
In October we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Corporate Overreach” with over 450 references.
