Petr Stepanek, Deputy Chairman of the Green Party and a Prague 4 Councilmember, says, “Citizens of other countries have gotten used to living here with limited rights. Fortunately, this situation is changing. In addition the rights guaranteed under the Czech constitution, EU citizens now have the right to vote. The Greens strongly believe in shared responsibility in communities, and we have long supported extending the right to vote to non-citizens. We urge EU citizens to join Czechs on Election Day to get the best local councils possible.”
