Proposal
1. The Green Party of the United States publicly calls for 
divestment from and boycott of the State of Israel until such time as 
the full individual and collective rights of the Palestinian people are 
realized. 

 

To maximize the effect of the Green Party's support for divestment and 
boycott of Israel:

 

2. The party calls on all civil society institutions and 
organizations around the world to implement a comprehensive divestment 
and boycott program. Further, the party calls on all governments to 
support this program and to implement state level boycotts.

 

3. The party urges the Campus Greens network to work in cooperation 
with other campus organizations to achieve institutional participation 
in this effort.

  

4. The GPUS National Committee directs the Green Peace Action 
Committee (GPAX) to encourage the larger anti-war movement to promote 
the divestment/boycott effort.

  

5. The GPUS National Committee directs the International Committee 
to work with our sister Green parties around the world in implementing 
an international boycott. 
Resources
Implementation by GPUS International, Peace Action, and 
Media committees as noted in the proposal.
