Why Us, Why Now?
Bright Green began in 2025 as a grassroots effort in Portland Oregon USA. We launched with a handful of people determined to do the next right thing, sharing an achievable vision for a hopeful tomorrow. Our roots are humble and local, grounded in the belief that political action should come from everyday people willing to act in good faith. Politics is broken, and we are done waiting for someone else to fix it.
Where We’re Going
Our work has just begun. Bright Green is building toward real influence by engaging directly with policymakers, advocating for issues that matter, and using political giving to open doors. The path ahead is ambitious, but each step brings us closer to shifting the balance of what is possible.
Principles First
Progress starts with showing up and putting in the work. Shortcuts and empty gestures have no place here. We focus on making every effort count, using modern tools and organizing practices to extend our reach. At the core are clarity, honesty, and persistence.
Rise With Us
Bright Green thrives on community support and collaboration. Every new person who joins makes us stronger. Together we can take action that shapes the future we all deserve. Whether you volunteer, donate, or spread the word, your hands help write the next chapter of the American story.
Built to Last
Our early success is measured by steady progress, building momentum. Bright Green is designed to grow with volunteers and small donors, protect what works, and evolve to make the most of our shared strengths.
