Land, Agricultural, and Housing Reform

By

Point 4 of the Program of the American Communist Party

"The Communist Party stands for the abolition of corporate monopolization of the land and resources of the nation, the prohibition of parasitic land speculation, the establishment of state, municipal, and cooperative ownership of all land, and contractual usage rights for enterprises, families, and individuals.

The Communist Party stands for the protection of the rights of farmers and the large-scale construction of public agricultural infrastructure backed by state credit.

The Communist Party stands for an immediate moratorium on the use of GMOs and harmful pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides in agriculture, pending comprehensive public investigation by a People’s Health Commission, which is to be outside of the influence of corporate monopolies. The Communist Party stands for severe personal penalties for introducing harmful substances into the food and water supply.

The Communist Party stands for the abolition of speculation in real estate and housing property and the dispossession of all slumlords without compensation.

The Communist Party stands for the nationalization, restructuring, and repurposing of all large-scale commercial real estate, development, and construction companies into State-Owned Enterprises."
