Steven Schmidt
Steve promoted and ably defended the creation of the Association of Green State Parties in the early days of the nascent U.S. Green Party. In 1995 at a national gathering of Greens in New Mexico, he presented the "40-State Green Organizing Effort," a strategic plan that included a presidential campaign by state parties with a convention to be held in Los Angeles. The proposal was accepted and state parties moved forward with national organizing based on his plan. Steve chaired a new Platform committee from 1995 to 2001, during which time he structured and drafted a significant amount of the founding platform (which can be found at https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Category:Green_Platform). The official, founding U.S. Green Party Platform was an integral part of the subsequent successful submission to the FEC for national committee/party status.
