DSA stands in absolute opposition to the proposed deal to pass Trump's billionaire budget. Healthcare is a right, not a bargaining chip.

The Trump administration has tried to blame federal workers while withholding $6 billion for SNAP that could prevent millions from going hungry. Federal workers are the families working without pay, applying for loans & struggling to feed our families. And we will hold the line for these services. 💪

Whatever this poll means, its clear: Democratic voters don't want the same corporate candidates, they want something new.

Yesterday, over 250 neighbors arrived at The United Labor Center to let everyone know that Minneapolis will not be silenced. We turned anger into action and knocked thousands of doors to let our neighbors know what’s at stake in this election.

On to November! fatehformayor.com

How can the left harness the power of creativity to break out of the political bubble? We talked to @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social for @hammerandhope.bsky.social about DREAM's history, strategy, and using hatred for good.

“Zohran Mamdani Helped Us Love New York. We Helped New Yorkers Hate On Andrew Cuomo.”
Scrappy leftist organizers are learning their political campaigns “can succeed by being creative and speaking the truth in interesting ways.”

We’re proud of our whole slate. Alejandra, Carl and Sumter are excellent organizers who will continue to lead in powerful DSA chapters. We’re thankful for all the great conversations we had with members over the past few months — so many across the country want a DSA for all.

Congratulations to our comrades on the new NPC! At the DSA National Convention this past weekend, members voted to elect Kareem, Eleanor, Frances, and Cara to represent them as At-Large NPC members, and re-elected Ashik as National Co-Chair.

Aparna is both a tenant and labor organizer - need more of those people on city councils. check out the launch video
People are being forced out of DC. The cost of living is too high, and Trump is waging an all-out assault on the District.

It should be easier and more affordable to build a life here.

That's why I’m running for DC Council in Ward 1.

GNDCC’s Convention Report, posted last week, provides key context for deliberation on this year’s GNDCC Res (CR03) and the amendment. The history of GNDCC shows how the amendment would take DSA backwards without building internal democracy or deepening external strategy. 🧵
