The Unified Platform: A Certified Hit!!
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!

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, 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 November we published “Honest Government Ad | Visit Myanmar!” This reference shows we have a long way to go on both civil rights and war.
-
In November we published “America adds battery equivalent of 20 nuclear reactors in less than 4 years” and the New Progressive Alliance article “We can power with renewable energy right now” with over 450 references. These two references show how easy it is to transfer to sustainable energy and save both money and lives.
-
In November we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Continuous Wars” with over 1,300 references.
- In November we changed the website to focus on our present mission of information outreach since we - despite our best efforts - were not able to make progress on elections or people movements.
-
In November we published “After the Election” which sent a message aimed at uniting. No matter who wins the election, the United States will survive. Let us continue to do our duties.
- In October the New Progressive Alliance joined with other agencies to phase out fossil fuels in a sustainable manner.
-
In October we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Beware the Biden/Harris Administration” with many references. The Biden/Harris administration has not been good for the environment or civil rights. There is a long history here.
-
In October we published “Japan vs. Paul Watson.” The environment and civil rights are linked.
-
In October we published “Jobs, Disinflation, Sahm Rule, Yield Curve Say Bidenomics Failing” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Beware the Biden/Harris Administration.” These two articles document the Biden/Harris administration has not been good for the environment, economy, or civil rights.
-
In October we published the New Progressive Alliance article “Diminishing Transparency” with over 135 references.
-
In September we published “E-Fuels: A Costly Distraction in the Race to Zero Emissions” and the New Progressive Alliance article “Environmental Distractions and False Solutions.” These two references show how the fossil fuel industry continues to mislead about false green solutions that only enrich fossil fuel companies.
-
In September we published “Climate Scorecard Ratings by Country.” It will take a world wide effort to avoid widespread environmental and economic damage and loss of life.
-
In September we published “Documents, Whistleblowers, and Public Comments Are Clear: Oil Companies Know Carbon Capture Is Not a Climate Solution“and the New Progressive Alliance article “Environmental Distractions and False Solutions” with many references. Both these references show with many examples how fossil fuel companies and governments use distractions and false solutions to avoid dealing with the pressing problem of climate change.
- In September we published “Heat aggravated by carbon pollution killed 50,000 in Europe last year – study. Continent is warming at much faster rate than other parts of world, leading to fires, drought and health problems.” There is a real cost for delaying dealing with climate change.
- In September we published “Democrats Weaponize Government Agencies Against Musk” and “Beware the Biden/Harris Administration.” These two references show if Trump wins in November it will be more a case of the democrats losing rather than the republicans winning.
-
In September we published “Honest Government Ad | Freedom of Information Laws.” Unfortunately the situation is very similar for whistleblowers and Freedom of Information Acts in the United States and United Kingdom as it is in Australia.
-
In September we published an interview with Chris Hedges in which he describes what is wrong with both candidates for President.
- In September we published a New Progressive Alliance article which describes the dramatic increase in poverty over decades thanks to the policies of both parties. It has over 300 references.
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.

Candidates Who Support the Unified Platform
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.
