Friday, Dec 5 GREENZINE SF Green Party Weekly News and Events www.sfgreenparty.org twitter.com/sfgreenparty instagram.com/sfgreenparty mastodon.sfgreens.org/@sfgreenparty www.facebook.com/groups/SFGreenParty/ Dear Greens, Join us for a rally against war in Venezuela tomorrow, and for our holiday party on December 17! There will be no meeting in December, just the holiday party. Details on both events are below. Greens finally broke through our local media blackout! County Council member and Sunset resident Barry Hermanson was extensively quoted in an article in the Gazetteer. He spoke on newly appointed Sunset District Supervisor Alan Wong's support for Mayor Lurie's YIMBY upzoning plan, which Greens strongly oppose due to concerns that building more luxury investment condos will lead to increased unaffordability for current SF residents: https://sf.gazetteer.co/welcome-to-city-hall-alan-wong *===========================* What: SF Green Party 2025 Holiday Party Where: Eco Terreno Urban Tasting Room, 140 Columbus Ave, SF 94133 When: Wednesday, December 17, 7-10 pm Everybody is invited to the *SFGP 2025 Holiday Party* on Wednesday, December 17, 2025!

Where: Civic Center BART Plaza When: Saturday, December 6th, 12 PM The Trump administration is pushing the U.S. toward a catastrophic war on Venezuela: bypassing Congress, violating international law, and fabricating pretexts for intervention. In a briefing earlier this week, Trump promised land strikes in Venezuela would begin “very soon,” has called for its airspace to be “closed,” and terminated negotiations with Venezuela’s government. Missile strikes in the Caribbean and massive troop mobilizations show this is a full-scale regime change operation in motion. But it is not too late to act! The majority in the U.S. oppose war. We must stop this war before it starts! *===========================* To submit events for our newsletter, please email a short blurb to news@sfgreens.org. Messages to a mailing list will be rejected.
