Congrats @chrisrabb & @PhillyDSA!
Strong candidate (state elected with a base) + strategic district (most Democratic in the US) + populist Left platform (Medicare For All, Abolish ICE, Free Palestine) + knock 100k doors + grassroots $ = Win. It's not easy, but DSA can do it! 🌹
There is a new Democratic Socialist in Congress. DSA congratulates our member Chris Rabb on his election for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District. This victory would not have been possible without the work of thousands of working class people across Philadelphia organizing for a better world. We will be with Congressman Rabb every step of the way in the fight to abolish ICE, free Palestine and win Medicare for All.
Interesting note: The only two House Democrats elected before 2020 to have never voted for weapons to Israel are Tlaib and AOC.

Can't make this up. Antonio Reynoso lied about attending yesterday's Tax the Rich rally with Bernie. He wasn't even in the borough at the time. https://t.co/MpDn2y1J4A
DSA is ready to announce our latest endorsement! We proudly endorse Marek Broderick and his re-election to Burlington’s City Council! 🎉 🌹
Marek’s time so far on the city council is marked by his dedication to protecting renters, supporting students, and public service!
Today, as I see our voices needing to be centered at the Capitol, I am running for State Representative in the 92nd district of New Haven. Please help me reach my goal by contributing between $5 /$10 if your in New Haven.

As an eleventh-hour attempt to block the eviction of roughly 800 unhoused people from a state-funded shelter program played out in court Thursday morning, individuals who have been staying at motels packed their belongings. #vtpoli

Thursday marked the first of several waves of evictions planned for this spring and summer, as the state winds down pandemic-era programs that have sheltered an estimated 80% of Vermont’s unhoused population in motels. #vtpoli https://t.co/Z2Bnps3zGT
By focusing on helping the most gasoline-burdened drivers switch to EVs, this bill sets an important precendent. Thanks to @BeccaWhiteVT@RepKateLogan Rep Gabrielle Stebbins @BurlingtonElec@VPIRG
