The group acknowledged its past criticisms of Clinton -- including her slowness to oppose the Keystone XL pipeline, her onetime praise of the Trans-Pacific Partnership and her "ties to fossil fuel lobbyists" -- but argued that Stein has been largely absent on important progressive fights as well.

"Where was she during the battle against the Keystone XL pipeline, the Keep It In The Ground movement, the Fast Track Trade Promotion Authority battles, the fight for a $15 dollar minimum wage, same-sex marriage and all the other major progressive gains over the past several years?" Pica wrote.

"They did not take part. The Green Party is a political organization in name only, though we wish it were much more."
