Bosses say
"We prefer to meet directly with our employees."
"We don't want some third party in here."

They're trying to paint your union as some outside group interfering.

Don't let them. You are the union.

🧵UAW Statement on the Republicans’ Anti-Worker Budget Reconciliation Bill

Senate Republicans’ budget reconciliation bill is a gut punch to working people. Behind a smokescreen of small, short-term gains, this bill inflicts deep, lasting harm.

Statement from DSA's National Political Committee. DSA Condemns Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” and Calls for House to Vote “No”
July 1, 2025. 1 of 4 The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) condemns Donald Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill”, and with its recent passage in the Senate 51-50, we urge all people of conscience to call their representatives and make their voices heard.

This bill would be one of the largest cash grabs by the billionaires in world history.

This bill supports massive cuts to Medicaid and will lead to as many as 17 million poor and disabled Americans losing their Medicaid and accessible healthcare cuts to rural hospitals and nursing homes will target our most vulnerable.

Statement from DSA's National Political Committee On Zohran Mamdani's Primary Win, June 27, 2025. In New York City, socialism has won. Time and again, the capitalist class have told working class New Yorkers that providing the basic necessities of affordable housing, efficient transit, and universal child care are not possible, and they should be grateful for the crumbs they do provide. But working class New Yorkers across all different ages, races, and religions have refused to accept that lie. New York City has again proved that a better world is possible. These election results are a rejection of the Democratic Party political establishment and point to a widespread desire for an alternative to the status quo, and the need for the working-class political party DSA is building.
