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 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, Progressive Perspectives, 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 Twitter under the New Progressive Alliance. Connections to all of our allies may be found here.

• In September we published “Hurricane Idalia could become 2023’s costliest climate disaster for the US.” The costs of climate change continue to mount.

• In September we published a reference to The Petroleum Papers: Inside the Far-Right Conspiracy to Cover Up Climate Change by Geoff Dembicki. This book clearly documents the outrageous lies and bribery of the fossil fuel industry.

• In September we published “Maui Fire Coverage Ignored Fossil Fuel Responsibility.” The main stream media refuse to connect the dots on climate change causing world wide disasters.

• In September we published “10 Climate Change Myths Debunked.” The fossil fuel companies have spent a huge amount of money creating and promulgating demonstrably wrong myths that many otherwise intelligent people in academia and churches believe.

• In September we published “‘No miracles needed’: Prof Mark Jacobson on how wind, sun and water can power the world.” Present technology is here right now to solve the climate crisis. We should not wait for a fossil fuel miracle.

• In September we published “Raid on Kansas Paper Shows Perilous State of Free Press.” This is an alarming trend.

• In September we published “Is the US Headed Towards Another Civil War?” This TED talk raises serious concerns.

• In September we published “No SPOILERS” by Gary Swing. The United States needs to take a serious look at election reform.

• In September we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Widespread Police Misconduct and an Expanding Prison Population” with  over 740 references.

• In August we published “Q&A with Gary Swing |- Veteran minor party candidate advocates for proportional representation.” Many third party candidates either do not make a serious effort or know nothing about the electoral system. Gary Swing is an exception to both that the New Progressive Alliance has endorsed six times since 2012.

• In August we published “How corporate power has neutered comedy” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Corrupt Media” with over 895 references. Though a democratic republic demands a free press to function properly, these two articles show there has been an alarming decline in this area.

• In August we published “What the Fossil Fuel Industry Doesn't Want You To Know | Al Gore | TED” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Cost of Fossil Fuel Subsidies” with over 100 references. These two sources show the huge amount we pay to fossil fuel companies which far eclipses anything for renewable energy.

• In August we published “The world inches closer to feared global warming 'tipping points': 5 disastrous scenarios” and  the New Progressive Alliance article “Cost of Environmental Destruction” with over 260 references. These two articles show there is a devastating and severe cost to continued environmental destruction.

• In August we published “Study documents huge health impacts of “natural” gas pollution” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Fracking and Natural Gas is Not the Answer” with over 1,405 references. These two articles show natural gas by fracking is still polluting fossil fuels.

• In August we published “World's biggest car companies are LYING about why they aren't making EVs.”  Legacy Auto companies are being left behind.

• In August we published from Australia “Honest Government Ad | COP31 Australia & the Pacific.” The United Nations COP climate meetings have become almost a joke.

• In August we published “IEA Anticipates Tony Seba's 'Crazy' Prediction to Happen Within 12 months.” The future looks good if we make the right decisions.

• In August we published “Exxon Mobil publicly denied global warming for decades but accurately predicted it.” This is one of many examples of the deliberate falsehoods by fossil fuel companies.

• In August we published The New Progressive Alliance article “The War on Whistleblowers” which has over 520 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 July we published “Cornel West and the Campaign to End Political Apartheid - The two ruling parties have destroyed our democracy. Voting for one or the other will not bring it back.” Blindly supporting the two main parties in the United States will not advance us.

• In July we published “Air pollution is slashing years off the lives of billions - Dirty air is a far greater killer than smoking, car crashes or HIV/Aids, with coal burning the leading cause” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Cost of Environmental Destruction” with over 260 references. These two articles clearly show the continued and worsening effects of environmental destruction.

• In July we published “13Million Dollars a Minute: government Subsidies Speed Climate Change, Degrade Natural Assets” and the New Progressive Alliance article with over 100 references “Cost of Fossil Fuel Subsidies.” These two articles show the amount we spend on fossil fuel subsidies far exceeds that of sustainable energy.

• In July we published “The new reality of a country on fire” and “Climate Crisis Is on Track to Push One-Third of Humanity Out of Its Most Livable Environment.”  These two articles show the severe effects of continuing to ignore climate destruction.

• In July we published “Climate Crisis Is on Track to Push One-Third of Humanity Out of Its Most Livable Environment.” We need to face hard choices and reality.

• In July we published “As Ocean Oxygen Levels Dip, Fish Face an Uncertain Future - Global warming not only increases ocean temperatures, it triggers a cascade of effects that are stripping the seas of oxygen. Fish are already moving to new waters in search of oxygen, and scientists are warning of the long-term threat to fish species and marine ecosystems” and  the New Progressive Alliance article “Danger to Our Oceans” with over 115 references. These two articles show there is a clear threat to our oceans which is a basis for life.

• In July we published “Journalists Abandoned Julian Assange and Slit Their Own Throats - The failure by journalists to mount a campaign to free Julian Assange, or expose the vicious smear campaign against him, is one more catastrophic and self-defeating blunder by the news media.” This is a shameful failure by Biden and the mainstream news media.

• In July we published “Charging Domestic Terrorism Is Intended to Make the Cost of Protesting Too High.” This is an unfortunate worldwide trend in Australia, the United States, Canada, Europe, South America, and Africa.

• In July we published “Black alliance for Peace.” Media is always eager for war.

• In July we published “The Democratic Party’s Crucifixion of Matt Taibbi - Extensive government blacklists, revealed by the Twitter Files, are used to censor left-wing and right-wing critics. This censorship apparatus has been turned on the reporter who exposed them.” The New Progressive Alliance experience is that Twitter, though still imperfect, has improved since Elon Musk purchased it. There remains censorship against anything opposing the status quo at Facebook and YouTube.

• In July we published “Indigenous chief shot in head in Brazil’s ‘palm oil war’ region” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Killing and Harassment of Environmentalists is Increasing” with over 65 references. These two articles show there is an increasing trend of violence against environmentalists.

• In July we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Continuous Wars” with over 1,300 references. Continuous war is expensive in lives and money lost.

• In June we published “Honest Government Ad | Anti-Protest Laws.” This is not just in Australia. Many states in the United States as well as many countries in Europe and Africa are taking similar anti-protest stances against environmentalists.

• In June we published “The War on Terror led to over 4.5 million deaths: The new estimate highlights the deadly and ongoing impact of America’s post-9/11 wars.”  Wars are easy to get into but have huge consequences.

• Future generations will regard reduction of fossil fuels as our most important obligation. Some countries are responding better than others as this comparison shows. In June we published a Climate Scorecard that compares the progress of various countries.

• In June we published “Why scientists are using the word scary over the climate crisis.” We should be scared as well.

• In June we published “Canadian Government Ad™: Cleaning up the Oil Sands.” Canada also struggles with a government that only pretends to defend the environment.

• In June we published “Chris Hedges: Julian Assange — A Fight We Must Not Lose.” Freedom of the press and media is at stake.

• In June we published “Thousands forced to evacuate as wildfires ravage western Canada.” This is happening worldwide, but the media is amazingly silent.

• In June we published an “Honest Government Ad - Reserve Bank of Australia.” In the United States the FED (Head appointed by Trump and reappointed by Biden) is doing exactly the same thing with exactly the same result.

• In June we published “The Enemy From Within.” Focusing on war does not make us safer.

• In June we with other organizations supported the “Public Health Infrastructure Saves Lives Act.”

• In June we published “Biggest battery in UK history moves UK closer to 100% renewable energy.” Changing to sustainable energy is doable, affordable, and in progress.

• In June we published “The United States of Paralysis.” The longer the corporate state erodes the social bonds that knit us to society and give us a sense of purpose and meaning the more inevitable an authoritarian state and Christianized fascism becomes.

• In June we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Diminishing Transparency” with over 135 references.

• In June we signed on with other organizations to support proposals for OIRA/OMB  to modernize the regulatory process by making it easier for people to participate and to better assess costs and benefits.

2. 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.
