From JillStein.org:
On Tuesday, January 24th, President Obama will deliver his State of the Union address. There will also be responses and commentary from the Republican and Democratic parties.
On Wednesday, January 25th, at 8:30pm Eastern, we invite you to participate in The People’s State of the Union: A Green New Deal for America. You’ll hear a realism about America’s situation –and the ways to overcome it– that Wall Street an the Washington establishment don’t want you talking about. We can have an economy that provides jobs for everyone without depressing wages or destroying the environment. We can get Wall Street off our backs and win control of our lives and common future.
Through this special online broadcast, you will hear presidential candidate Jill Stein describe the Green New Deal that can reclaim our future and fulfill the promise of America. Lines will be open for your questions and ideas. All you need is an internet connection and a computer.
Here is the schedule for Wednesday, January 25th: At 8:30pm, view the People’s State of the Union, right here, on this website; at 9:10pm Eastern, we will begin a live video conversation with Jill Stein (again, this live video will appear here, at JillStein.org).
Here’s another idea: Host a People’s State of the Union House Party. Use the occasion to share some good news. Your vision for people, peace and the planet finally has a political voice! So invite friends to come to listen, celebrate, and consider ways to strengthen our voices in the coming year. We suggest starting your house party at 8pm eastern.
BONUS: If you register your house party by January 18th, we will send you a packet of 10 bumperstickers and 10 buttons to distribute at your event!
What’s most important is that on Wednesday evening, January 25th, you join us. Whether that’s by your lonesome, with a few friends, or with a house filled with people is up to you. Let’s make 2012 a transition year for America and the world.

Additionally, the Fort Worth Telegram reports that
The Texas Libertarian Party will hold a presidential campaign debate in Grapevine next month, a local party official confirmed Wednesday.
The debate is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Feb. 25 at the DFW Airport North Outdoor World hotel in Grapevine and will be open to the public, according to John Spivey, chairman of the Tarrant County Libertarian Party. Candidates will take questions selected by a debate committee and posed by the audience.
Gary Johnson, a former Republican governor of New Mexico, has confirmed that he will attend the debate, Spivey said. Last month, Johnson quit the GOP presidential primaries to vie for the Libertarian nomination.
Candidates R.J. Harris of Oklahoma, and Roger Gary and Lee Wrights, both of Texas, will also attend the debate, Spivey said. Several other candidates running for the party’s nomination have been invited.
The party’s nominee will be selected at the national convention in Las Vegas in May. Along with Texas, where the party already has ballot access, officials have said they expect their candidate to be on the ballot in at least 45 states.
It seems that Johnson, who was excluded from most of the debates when he was seeking the Republican presidential nomination, is not shy about debating other candidates for the Libertarian nomination.
In 2008, former Republican Congressman Bob Barr did not officially announce for the Libertarian nomination until the day after the last state convention, and did not appear in debates with most of the other candidates (except for one joint forum with Wayne Root and Mike Gravel). He also was the only candidate to skip all of the informal debates at the LP national convention, appearing only in the CSPAN televised debate.
