Solidarity with the Detainees and Protesters at Delaney Hall and at all the other ICE Concentration Camps.

Abolish ICE. Close the facilities. End the Prison Industrial Complex. Solidarity to the Oppressed.

FREE THEM ALL.

[DSA @DemSocialists]

We stand in full solidarity with the nearly 300 detained immigrant community members who began a hunger and labor strike at Delaney Hall.

[North NJ DSA 🌹🍕 🏳️‍🌈 @NorthNJDSA]

8 days since the beginning of the strike at Delaney Hall, we're so moved by the continued strength of the strikers inside and our fellow protestors on the ground. Come join if you can!

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.

[Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh 🗞 @PGHGuild]

The Venetoulis Institute for Local Journalism has begun its ownership of the @PittsburghPG by cutting at least 40% of staff, and 80% of former strikers.

It is sad, vindictive, and does not bode well for what we’ve fought and hoped for, including the success of the PG.

[Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh 🗞 @PGHGuild]

Venetoulis Institute (@BaltimoreBanner) CEO Bob Cohn says decisions on job cuts had *nothing* to do with strike history.

% of strikers cut: 80
% of scabs kept who publicly disavowed the union: 80

“The cause of labour is the hope of the world.” Happy International Workers' Day, comrades. We hope you spend your May Day celebrating workers and solidarity. 🌹✊

[UAW @UAW]

May Day is International Workers' Day.

UAW President Shawn Fain has called on the rest of the labor movement to join us in preparing to strike on May Day 2028. It’s our opportunity to create a crisis for the billionaire class to win more for all of us.

When workers align their fights to the same timeline, we have more leverage than we do alone. What if we didn’t just do that in a corporate chain or one union, but across the country and the labor movement?

Now is the time to get ready to create that May Day crisis for the bosses.

Get involved https://t.co/X8pO8xeJmu

Happy International Workers’ Day!

Workers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!

[Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh 🗞 @PGHGuild]

Today, the incoming ownership of the @PittsburghPG received the following open letter from city, county, state, and federal elected officials welcoming the Venetoulis Institute for Local Journalism to Pittsburgh, and urging strong staffing and good-faith bargaining.

[Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh 🗞 @PGHGuild]

We joined many of you in welcoming the PG’s new owners. Then celebrations got cut short. Folks in Baltimore were told our staff is getting halved. The CEO was dodgy re: union rights.

Will you sign our pledge marking the need for robust staff & a union PG?

Here's what we have going on this week!

[DSA @DemSocialists]

"This morning, Donald Trump threatened that
"a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again."
referring to his war in Iran.

As many of us file our taxes this week, we are more aware than ever that it is our tax dollars which fund this genocidal war, and it is our responsibility to stop it in its tracks. As the U.S.-Israeli agenda of genocide and devastation marches forward, so too must working class people, to ensure their defeat.

We, the working class, must organize against barbarism, for there is nothing we cannot achieve together."

–Megan R. & Ashik S.
