Building a Democracy Movement

Jill Stein is a mother, physician, pioneering environmental-health advocate, and longtime Massachusetts resident, who began advocating for the environment as a human health issue in 1998, realizing lawmakers were not protecting children from harm because of the influence of big money. She worked to pass the Clean Election Law, later repealed by the legislature. Recognized for leadership in successful campaigns for a healthy environment, she accepted the call in 2002 to run for MA Governor and later for State Representative and Secretary of State under the Green-Rainbow Party banner. Dr. Stein was the 2012 Green Party presidential nominee and today leads the Green Shadow Cabinet.
