ICYMI: Clean Water, 2026 Conference
Nov. 17th – ICYMI, during our 11/16 meeting, the United States Pirate Party officially adopted Clean Water to our platform.
The issue of clean water first came up on March 4th when the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cannot limit sewage discharge into water, leaving the door open for cities to dump even more sewage into bodies of water.
Soon after, we released Pirates for Water, an entry of the Through the Spyglass series reaffirming the Pirate commitment to clean water.
As of yesterday’s meeting, it has officially been added to our platform. Pirates for water indeed.
Also of note: the 2026 Pirate National Conference will take place on June 6th, 2026, a date which marks 20 years of the US Pirate Party.
Instead of simply picking a location and choosing it, supporters have had the chance to suggest cities that would be brought to a wider vote.
After weeks of voting, we are finally down to twelve picks. This next week, supporters will vote in the first round to see who will face the Top Four seeds next week.
We have fun here.
Boston, MA, Providence, RI, Portland, OR and Vicksburg, MS are currently the standout choices and the cities who have received a first round bye.

It’ll be a on a boat, regardless of location.
