Boston Democratic Socialists of America endorses Marcos Candido for Lowell City Council District 8

BDSA and Merrimack Valley DSA are proud to endorse Marcos Candido for Lowell City Council. Marcos is committed to being a strong democratic socialist voice north of Boston, breaking with the Council's complacency and obstruction and instead championing a transformation of housing, immigrant rights, and urban planning.

Growing up in an under-resourced city as a son of immigrants, and as a former NIH researcher and union organizer, Marcos understands the struggles of working families. He is committed to taking on the housing crisis driven by the real estate industry and improving public transit and accessible infrastructure in Lowell.

While the current Lowell City Council has cut funds for education and public health to increase the police budget, Marcos has a plan to build affordable housing, fully fund public schools, improve public transit, and guarantee transparency at Lowell City Hall.

What’s your favorite mayoral candidate housing policy?

(1) Cuomo: Everyone is required to be rent burdened

(2) Kraft: I’m giving tax breaks to landlords to raise rents at 4x inflation

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @socialists.nyc Tax the Rich it works! They won't flee they just whine louder

Amid unsettled times in Washington, Mass. collects $2b more in tax revenue than expected thanks to millionaires tax - The Boston Globe Healey administration officials said Friday that Massachusetts collected $2 billion more in tax revenue than officials originally projected in the fiscal year that ended last month.

Fair Share continues to deliver for Massachusetts. 🎒🚍

OPPOSE POLICY ORDER #3 PEOPLE SURVIVING POVERTY OUTSIDE IN CAMBRIDGE NEED CARE, NOT COPS! PO #3 TARGETS A SPECIFIC GROUP OF OUTSIDE SLEEPERS AND ASKS FOR "ADDITIONAL ENFORCEMENT TOOLS" ACROSS THE CITY.

IT IS APPALLING THAT MAYOR SIMMONS WOULD INTRODUCE THIS ORDER LESS THAN ONE WEEK AFTER TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE ORDER CALLING ON CITIES TO CRIMINALIZE HOMELESSNESS!

THIS COMES JUST ONE MONTH AFTER THE COUNCIL'S UNJUST DECISION TO CLOSE A 58-BED HOMELESS SHELTER. IF OUR NEIGHBORS HAD SHELTER, MAYBE THEY WOULDN'T BE SLEEPING OUTSIDE!

TELL THE COUNCIL TO VOTE DOWN THIS CALLOUS PROPOSAL • EMAIL <COUNCIL@CAMBRIDGEMA.GOV> AND CC <CLERK@CAMBRIDGEMA.GOV> • AND/OR SIGN UP TO SPEAK 8/4 AT 5:30: http://bit.ly/Aug4Comment (CASE SENSITIVE LINK) ZOOM COMMENT AVAILABLE

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ran an incredible campaign in NYC & did @socialists.nyc proud! @bostondsa.org also has the opportunity to elect a young, BIPOC mayor fighting for working people, renters, people of color, and queer folks. If you want to help, go to linktr.ee/WillieforSomerville

You heard it from our co-chair Tefa — Zohran shook up NYC. Now it’s Somerville’s turn. Let’s get Willie elected 🔥 #dsa #willieforsomerville #somerville TikTok video by Boston DSA

We need Ayah to win this year! She came close last time and I would love for her to win. No offense to any other candidates of her generation that are running for office but she is more than being young as I know that she is a great leader already no matter how old she is.

These ineffective and inhumane methods, all to apprehend one man experiencing a mental health crisis, put our entire community at risk. CPD would rather use their bloated budget to enforce militarism than community safety. Shame on CPD!

tweet from Cambridge Police "Incident Update- CPD Peacefully Resolves 18-Hour Standoff - Broadway at Windsor St. Read more in this incident: camb.ma/4fkqrMc" images of militarized cops, cop cars, and an apartment building

The Cambridge Police (still exclusively on X, naturally) are furiously spinning this debacle. After hours of antagonizing community members, they teargassed a low-income apartment building with NO WARNING. An elderly resident & a baby were sent to the hospital, and dozens suffered while CPD watched.

Over the next 8 days, you won't be able to turn on your TV, check your mail or watch a YouTube video without seeing a lie about our campaign.

But we have the people.

And the only thing more powerful than all this billionaire cash are New Yorkers talking to their neighbors.

A graphic of Bernie and Zohran smiling. Text reads “BERNIE ENDORSES ZOHRAN.”

As for so many across this country, Bernie Sanders has been the single most influential political figure in my life.

As Mayor, I will strive to live up to his example by fighting for the working class every day and hopefully make Brooklyn’s own proud.

"Our future will not be different until we make a different a choice."

New ad feat. @aoc.bsky.social now airing across New York City.

Our new ad is now live.

Freeze the rent.

He left home to find a car to evacuate his family but returned to find his house destroyed, his three children killed, and wife wounded.

While many Americans were still asleep, Republicans in the House of Representatives passed Trump’s huge, horrible mega-bill.

It might be the worst, most damaging piece of legislation I’ve seen in my nearly 60 years in politics.

It’s hard to be #NewYorkForever🏀 when you can’t afford New York.

Let’s go Knicks.

Every New Yorker deserves a safe, healthy and affordable place to call home. Winning that city is at the center of this campaign.

It was a privilege to sit down with @tenantbloc.bsky.social organizers last month to talk about our vision for renters.
