“I’m tired of feeling powerless. Joining DSA is the most effective way to get organized. DSA chapters across the country build strong communities and campaign for candidates who stand for working people against oligarchs. I want to be a part of it!” — North Carolina dsausa.org/join
This May Day, we hit the streets of Newburgh with Amazon workers, farmworkers, postal workers, teachers, and immigrant organizers, all rising up for justice on the job and in our communities.
"Their goal is to demoralize you. Their goal is to scare you out of action. Their goal is to bully you out of standing up for what is right for the working class of the world. But we are not defeated."

Chuck is backed by $$$. We are backed by each other. Let’s build a way out of this nightmare. Join DSA & get involved 🌹

We had a blast collecting tons of signatures with our candidate Giselle Martinez last weekend!🚀 Newburgh’s Ward 1 residents were eager to talk to us about the issues that matter most to them, like clean water, beautiful public parks, and fare-free public transportation. 🚰🌳🚌
If you’re looking for hope and inspiration right now, hit the streets with @mhvdsa.bsky.social this Saturday!
A better world is within our reach if we organize for it. We can all start by talking to people we know + people we don’t know 😉

2025 is a big year for local elections! Our socialist electeds have been leading the charge for affordable housing, stronger tenant protections, and a ceasefire and arms embargo. Now, we’re fighting to reelect Giselle Martinez to Newburgh's City Council to represent Ward 1!
MHVDSA’s Skill Share Initiative kicked off to a great start as members organized to help install a series of storage shelves in two members' home. 🛠️ 🌹
Fire Elon Musk, not federal workers!
Yesterday we rallied in Newburgh in support of federal workers, who deliver our mail, keep our parks open, ensure we have safe food and water, and so much more.
Yesterday, our chapter members rallied with @sarahanaforassembly in Albany to launch the Rent Emergency Stabilization Act (REST Act), a bill that will make it much easier for upstate municipalities to adopt rent stabilization.
Fend off the Sunday scaries with some bonding and banter with your favorite socialists. Join us in Beacon this Sunday for our first Solidarity Circle!

We won’t forget:
@nyulangone.bsky.social’s cowardly assault on trans healthcare is just one part of a right-wing campaign that’s also targeting our immigrant communities, our entire healthcare system, and ALL our human rights 2/3
Last night thousands of New Yorkers turned up on a moment’s notice to demand @nyulangone.bsky.social stop cutting off healthcare to trans youth.
As more and more hospitals capitulate to authoritarian attacks on our healthcare system, we know this fight is just beginning 1/3
50 people showed up in Kingston last night to support replacing Central Hudson with public power. We've got dozens more localities to go.

My name is Daniel Atonna. I'm running for City of Poughkeepsie Common Council in Ward 8, where I live and grew up. I'm a union member and community organizer who will always put Poughkeepsie over profit 🌹 I'll be in the Democratic primary on June 24. danielforpk.com
We sent 2,600 letters to Biden, held constituent visits with our reps, made countless phone calls and gathered over 50 signatures from politicians and unions like @uaw.org pressuring Biden to lift the SSOT. And we WON. There is nothing like the power of solidarity!
Today marks 9 days until Trump takes office again. 9 days before leaving office last time, he imposed devastating sanctions on #Cuba, triggering a humanitarian crisis. What will Biden do with his 9 days left?

Here are all the congressional dems who didn't vote against, and all the republicans who didn't vote for, the trans segregation bill banning participation in sports. there can be a lot of reasons for "not voting", including not being there due to health or travel.
Big news! I will be applying to be appointed to the City of Poughkeepsie Common Council representing Ward 8. I'm proud to have the support of my outgoing Councilmember Megan Deichler. I am also exploring a 2025 campaign for this seat. If you live in Poughkeepsie, let's talk!
Alright Bluesky, @publicpowerny.bsky.social spent years passing the first statewide Green New Deal program in history, the Build Public Renewables Act. But now the same ghouls who tried to stop us are trying to stop us from actually building them!
In NY? Bring the pressure!! → bit.ly/nyleadtheway
can u add me @mhvdsa.bsky.social
New ✍️ from me! This political moment is full of dread and anxiety, but is also a chance to draw clear lines between liberal platitudes and a socialist vision, and preserving broken systems to building something new. Let's take it on, together. through.blog/2024/11/21/t...
