The Georgia Green Party (GGP) is a registered political body in the American state of Georgia. The party is not an affiliate of the Green Party US organization. The GGP has also been barred access from ballots multiple times, causing them to consider lawsuits.[1]

In 2016, the Green Party of the United States advocated to have the GGP be registered by the Georgia General Assembly,[2] though this was countered by the primarily Republican majority in the legislature. The GGP was disaffiliated from the national Green Party federation in 2021, due to the GGP adopting positions which were judged in opposition to the national party's stances in favor of transgender rights.[3]
