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 is a list of our activities for the last three months. 

2. United Nations links articles showing our involvement with the United Nations and how you can be involved as well.

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

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, Progressive Perspectives, and "Progressives, Real Greens, and Socialists of Colorado." Because of problems with privacy and censorship on Facebook, we also publish on Twitter. Connections to all of our allies may be found here.

• In January the New Progressive Alliance made Public Comment 245 to the US Department of Agriculture to stop a pipeline through the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests because of both environmental damage and unnecessarily enriching a fossil fuel company. Public Comment 245 may be found in full at http://www.newprogs.org/public_comments_2020_224 

• In January we published “Here Are All the Positive Climate Stories From 2022” and the NPA article “We can power with renewable energy right now” with over 370 references. It is not too late to effectively fight climate destruction.

• In January we published “More than 2,400 lives will be lost to bushfires in Australia over a decade” and “Cost of Environmental Destruction” with over 200 references. These two articles show environmental destruction means human lives lost.

• In January we published “The Democrats are Now the War Party - The Democratic Party has become the party of permanent war, fueling massive military spending which is hollowing out the country from the inside and flirting with nuclear war” by Chris Hedges. Both parties should be held accountable.

• In January we published “Can False Balance Kill You? It Sure Can” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Corrupt Media” with over 875 references. Though a democratic republic demands a free press to function properly, there has been an alarming decline in this area.

• In January we published “The right-wing groups behind renewable energy misinformation” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Fossil Fuel Companies Lie” with over 100 references. These two articles show fossil fuel groups continue to lie.

• Julian Assange is a whistleblower that has been imprisoned for years for accurate journalism by the United States and the United Kingdom. In January the New Progressive Alliance published his address and asked readers to write him encouraging letters. 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. We also referenced the New Progressive Alliance article “The War on Whistleblowers” with over 520 references.

• In January we published “Policy, climate, war make 2022 ‘pivot year’ for clean energy.” 2023 will be a pivotal year for sustainable energy because of many reasons.

• In January 2023 we published a New Progressive Alliance article which describes the decline of labor over decades thanks to the policies of both parties. It has over 80 references.

• In December 2022 we published the New Progressive Alliance 2022 Annual Report.

• In December the New Progressive Alliance along with 167 other organizations wrote to every member of Congress to urge them to avoid default which would bring unnecessary hardship to our citizens. Public Comment 243 may be found in full at http://www.newprogs.org/public_comments_2020_224

• In December we published “Know Thine Enemy” by Chris Hedges. The plight of labor is declining and the democrats are not our friends.

• In December we published the Australian Honest Government Ad “The Rental Crisis.” The same policies in the United States produce the same devastating results for the poor.

• In December we published the YouTube video “Things Get HEATED: All In Besties CLASH Over Elon Musk’s Twitter Files” along with the New Progressive Alliance article “Corrupt Media” which describes the dramatic decrease in both the power and effectiveness of the public media with over 865 references. Though a democratic republic demands a free press to function properly, these two sources show there has been an alarming decline in this area.

• In December we published the NPA article “Cost of Fossil Fuel Subsidies” with over 80 references and “Nordic banks increase finance for Arctic oil and gas…US spends 21.2 billion in financing for fossil fuel industry since 2020.”  Pay Outs to fossil fuel companies far exceed anything for renewable energy.

• In December we published “THEY ALL, LIE, LIE, LIE.” Legacy automakers have continuously lied and falsified information.

• In December we published “Elon Musk Just EXPOSED Twitter’s Collusion w/Govt To Suppress Speech.” This is a threat that goes far beyond helping any particular political party.

• In December we published “Biden Is Breaking His Sick Leave Promise To Crush Rail Workers” and “Democrats Screw Over Rail Workers HARD.” These two articles show Biden only pretends to be pro-labor and pro-union.

• In December we published our NPA article on our crumbling infrastructure with over 115 references. The basis for our economy and prosperity is our infrastructure. The tragedy of our declining educational system, internet, power grid, roads, and bridges will take years to correct and we are already far behind other countries.

• The United Nations yearly meeting on the climate, COP27, has concluded. As Dr. Mann and Susan Hassol said, we must “be able to wrap our minds around two seemingly opposing realities: We are making substantial progress, and yet it’s wholly insufficient to the scale of the challenge.” While certainly inadequate and replete with greenwashing and hypocrisy it was not a complete waste of time. The New Progressive Alliance is in special consultative status with the U.N. Economic and Social Council and we trace the history of COP here: https://www.newprogs.org/make_your_case_with_the_2015_united_nations_climate_change_conference

• In November the New Progressive Alliance welcomed Climate Analytics and New Climate Institute as allies. We welcome documentation to deal with the serious problem of climate change.  All New Progressive Alliance allies and connections to their websites are listed here: http://www.newprogs.org/allies  

• In November we published “The climate crisis explained in 10 charts.” This is a great summary!

• In November we published an “Honest Government Ad: Visit Western Australia.” Fossil Fuel companies capturing government agencies are a worldwide problem.

• In November we published “We can power with renewable energy right now” with over 370 references. Despite demonstrable lies by fossil fuel companies and the banks and insurance companies which support them, not only can we power 100% with renewable energy right now, it is the least expensive option.

• In November we published “Leaders or laggards? Report analyzes net-zero pledges of US banks - Commitments, actions from 6 biggest banks fall far short of what’s needed for global climate goals.”  US banks remain the biggest fossil fuel financiers in the world. This is disgraceful in light of global climate change.

• In November we published “Rather than an endlessly reheated nuclear debate, politicians should be powered by the evidence.”

• In November we published our NPA article on healthcare with over 350 references. We pay more than any other industrialized country but have the least to show for it both in terms of health and coverage.
