Dr. Jill Stein, the recent Green-Rainbow Party candidate for Governor
of Massachusetts, will announce her candidacy for President of the
United States on Monday October 24 on the steps of the State House in
Boston at 12:30 PM.

A key focus on Stein's campaign will be a Green New Deal to end
unemployment in America and jump start a real recovery from the
Bush/Obama  recession. The Green New Deal will provide public jobs to
the 16% of Americans  who need one, including green jobs that will
transition America to a secure, green economy for the 21st Century.

Dr. Stein seeks to reverse the growing concentration of power and
wealth in the hands of the top 1%, an increasingly urgent problem
given the rising problems of unemployment, poverty and economic
distress afflicting vast numbers  of Americans.

Stein charges that President Obama has betrayed the voting blocs that
came together to elect him in 2008, raising hope for change, but
simply continuing  the policies of George Bush once elected:
escalating the wars in the Middle  East; extending the Bush tax cuts
while largely ignoring the unemployment  crisis; and failing to take
action on climate change.

As a medical doctor who ran against Mitt Romney in the 2002 Governor’s
race, Stein has been a critic of “Romneycare” that was the model for
“Obamacare”.  She wants to make health care a universal right and
supports  the adoption of a single payer, improved Medicare for All
program as the only financially affordable path to quality health care
for all.

Dr. Stein will seek the Presidential nomination of the Green Party.
She expects to qualify for the ballot in at least 40 states. She also
expects to qualify for Presidential primary matching funds.

Dr. Jill Stein is a mother, housewife, physician, longtime teacher of
internal medicine, and pioneering environmental-health advocate. Dr.
Stein graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College in 1973, and from
Harvard Medical School in 1979. She is the co-author of In Harm's Way:
Toxic Threats to Child  Development, and Environmental Threats to
Healthy Aging.
