Proposal

Amend Chapter II. Social Justice, F. Healthcare, to add a new section 3 titled "Informed Consent, Bodily Autonomy, End Surveillance" that reads as follows:

The Green Party adheres to the principle that Informed Consent in all personal health and medical decisions is an inalienable human right.

Under no circumstances shall any medical treatment or procedure — including psychotropic medications, vaccines and/or other injectable treatments — be mandated or coerced. Individuals should be allowed to protect/heal themselves in a manner that best supports their medical and spiritual beliefs.

The coercive methods we oppose include:

- Threats to personal health information privacy at every level
- Discrimination and/or lack of access to public education, public housing, or other public services
- Removal of minors from their guardians
- Any travel restrictions and/or restrictions from public spaces based on a requirement for “vaccine passports” or any other proof of “compliance” with any medical intervention
- Vaccine requirements that target specific populations based on ethnicity / race, even if positioned as correcting disparities

We further oppose the use of privacy-invasive technology and artificial intelligence (AI) monitoring systems (including facial recognition, fingerprint apps, tracking cell phones or any other personal electronic devices and credit score systems) as a way to monitor and track the movements and/or restrict the rights of individuals to freely exist and assemble as they choose, especially when applied to personal health care choices.
