Finally, we’re excited to endorse Marek Broderick @MarekBTV from @ChampValleyDSA for Burlington City Council in Ward 8! Marek is the candidate to unify Burlington progressives around socialist demands for housing, clean energy, and public transit.

The 2020s have been crisis after crisis, but 2023 saw growing multiracial working class resistance. Unions launched more strikes than in decades, and DSA had its share of victories as well.

Our campaign for a living wage launched seven months ago. Though the University refused to work with us, today Harvard University GSAS has announced it will raise the minimum compensation package for all PhD programs to $50K.
It only took 10 days for more than 1,200 student workers to sign our petition demanding a fair raise. We made sure Harvard heard us on Wednesday at our rally for a living wage. @Harvard - we'll be back.

We are proud to stand with Starbucks workers during their Red Cup Rebellion! ☕️🌹 Our folks talked to hundreds of customers this morning at the Steaming Kettle, Tremont, and Tufts stores. Starbucks is union-busting hard but SBWU stays winning, and we’ll always have their backs!

Yesterday, in a shameful bipartisan attack, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 234-188 to censure Congresswoman @RashidaTlaib. Tlaib is a member and representative of DSA, and the only Palestinian-American member of the House. 1/9 dsausa.org/statements/democr…

Over the last few weeks, members of YDSA @ UMN have been out protesting and demanding change for Palestine 🇵🇸 We urge all of you to attend a protest, write to your representatives, get involved, and make sure to not be silent on what is happening in Gaza.
