The Green Party, sensing that Jill Stein has positioned herself to be a serious contender for the presidency, has issued a statement demanding that the “U. S. cut aid to the Saudis,” said Robin Laverne Wilson, the Green Party nominee for the U. S. Senate seat currently held by Charles Ellis “Chuck” Schumer (D, New York). Wilson said, “the U. S. should use intense diplomatic pressure to halt the Saudis’ war in Yemen.”
