The
Disability Caucus is dedicated to helping all people displaced or affected
by Hurricane Katrina who have a disability. For more information go to:
Katrina Information Page
our Press Release is at gp.org
The Disability Caucus is an Identity Caucus of the United States Green
Party. Once we are accredited, we will have the same status as state parties
do within the Green Party (except that we can not cast a vote for our
presidential nominee). There are several other Identity Caucuses, including
Black, Latino, Women, and Lavender.
Our discussions and votes take place on the Disabled Greens mailing list.
If possible, please join this list. We average 1-4 messages a day, but
this can vary a lot. The list is to discuss Caucus business and related
activism work only. We are not a disability support group.

This is an adjunct list for official caucus business only (no discussion).
This is where votes and other important items will go. Only the list moderators
can post. Nothing will go here that won't also be on Disabled Greens.
If you do not have the energy to keep up with the regular Disabled Greens
list, you can join Disabled Greens Votes to make sure you won't miss anything
important.
If you join this list, please also join Disabled
Greens as at least a Special Notices subscriber so you will be able
to read posts on the webpage (or switch back to receiving posts) when
you wish to follow a particular discussion.
To join the Disabled Greens Votes mailing list:
Please go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/disabledgreensvotes
