The GPUS Merchandise Committee is always looking for Greens interested in getting involved. If you have an active State Party, you must be nominated to the committee. Outreach to your State Party first. We meet monthly via GPUS Zoom-room.

We're always looking for new, on-message, literature and graphic design. Your donated art/ image submission for our consideration of production is alway welcome.

Most correspondence and working group activity is done over email, and many work independently. We are completely volunteer based and our committee is made up of Greens from across the United States.

Join us. Share your passion and talent for a Greener future. #BeSeenBeingGreen
