Dress for the weather and be ready to bring the noise. Make the Regents hear us from inside their fancy meeting room! 🌹🏳️‍⚧️

The University of Michigan has abandoned transgender kids and 18-year-olds - join us in calling for the Regents to act on our numerous demands.

We agree, Assemblymember Claire Valdez: HANDS OFF CUBA. HANDS OFF LATIN AMERICA.

“This Executive Order is not a national security measure. It is an escalation of economic terrorism intended to starve Cuban people and deepen a humanitarian crisis that the U.S. itself has manufactured through more than six decades of blockade.” -@ValdezAssembly

Every February, we celebrate Black History Month, also known as African-American History Month, to honor the enduring determination and immense contributions of Black Americans throughout our nation's history.

As Frederick Douglass said, “If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning . . . Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will.”

"Their gear represents “the manifestation of decades of war, now in broad daylight in American cities.” One of the most heavily funded militaries in the world is now focused inward." Detroit resident

Many Congress members still don't understand this and are trying to "reform."

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Nothing to see here except a MAGA supporter running over a high school student who was protesting against ICE in Nebraska today.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

This Executive Order will kill countless innocent Cubans. I am horrified by the Trump Administration's attempt to strangle an entire people. Homes, schools, hospitals without power. Children without food or medicine. Cuba poses no threat to the US. This is pure cruelty.

[Twin Cities DSA 🌹 @TwinCitiesDSA]

Don't get us wrong, Tim, we love little treats. But treats aren't going to keep our neighbors safe and warm.

Far too many people won't be able to pay rent in just a few days because they (very understandably) are afraid to go to work.

Eviction moratorium NOW, @GovTimWalz!

[Huron Valley DSA @HuronValleyDSA]

Mass Meetings to plan resistance to ICE in Jackson next week. Plenty of HVDSA comrades will be at both! Come out if you live in Jackson County!!!

🚨 STATEMENT FROM UAW PRESIDENT SHAWN FAIN ON THE KILLING OF ALEX PRETTI 🚨

“The UAW stands in solidarity with the family and loved ones of our fallen union brother Alex Pretti and all those standing up for justice in Minneapolis and beyond. Alex Pretti was an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis Veterans Affairs hospital, and a member of AFGE Local 3669. He was a fellow union member doing what UAW members do all the time - heeding a call for solidarity and exercising his Constitutional rights. For that, he was killed in the street. Our union mourns his loss and our thoughts are with his family, his union, and his community.

As proud trade unionists, we value our Constitutional freedoms. The right to free speech and the right to protest are core to who we are as Americans and as union members. The killing of peaceful protesters like Alex Pretti threatens our rights and our Constitution.

In moments like these, the labor movement must not be silent. Unions in Minnesota took action last Friday, January 23, by participating in a general strike and protested across the state. If the right to protest or speak freely is under attack, then our rights as workers are not safe. Our freedom to strike, or to walk a picket line to win a better life, may be threatened next.”

[Starbucks Workers United @SBWorkersUnited]

BREAKING: Last night, the Schuylkill Yards Starbucks location won their union... officially making EVERY Starbucks in West Philadelphia unionized!

CONGRATULATIONS to the baristas who are organizing to win a better future for workers everywhere ✊🔥

(1/3) On 25 January in Bogotá, Colombia 🇨🇴, delegates from governments, parliaments, and movements around the globe adopted the 'San Carlos Declaration', launching a new project to defend sovereignty in the Americas.

[DSA @DemSocialists]

DSA is proud to have joined comrades from more than 20 countries in Bogota for the Nuestra America convening to draft and sign the San Carlos Declaration this weekend. We are united against the Donroe Doctrine and for sovereignty and dignity for all workers across the Americas.

My sis is a survivor. She fled war at 8 yrs old. I am angry she is facing so much hate + violence. What these people don’t understand is that this country belongs to all of us. I pray one day Ilhan won't have to put her fists up to defend herself. Her lived experience is why she won't let them win. We are blessed to have her in Congress.

[DSA @DemSocialists]

Join DSA, @nycDSA, @jvplive, @justicedems and other orgs, leaders for a mass call tonight at 8 pm ET. We will hear from organizers on the ground in Minneapolis, labor leaders, and immigrant justice organizers. ABOLISH ICE
