VOTE @JuForThePeople AND @FrancescaHongWI Aug. 11! UW-Madison student. Grew up in the 51st state. @DSAmadison electoral co-chair. Tweets do not represent DSA.

Corey Ruiz was a member of our community. His life mattered. He did not deserve to be shot to death in the street. 

Fatal encounters with law enforcement happen far too often – especially for people of color. The only acceptable number of police killings is zero.

.@JuForthePeople is the only State Assembly 76 candidate that understands reformist reforms are not acceptable for our punishment bureaucracy.

AOC will declare around January 2027.
DSA will not endorse till August 2027.

between those, a significant chunk of the org will campaign for AOC but not as DSA.

Unless a chapter preempts a national endorsement and campaigns as a DSA chapter.

A good reminder that Mayor Rhodes-Conway thanked police officers after brutalizing Black Lives Matter protesters in 2020.

She also moved to close Dairy Drive, a sanctioned homeless shelter, right before the Winter last year.

She is currently running for re-election unopposed.

“I am angered and saddened by what happened today. My heart breaks for those who have lost a loved one, those who witnessed the shooting, and everyone impacted. There is real pain in our city right now.

So if Tony Evers or anyone else within the Wisconsin Democratic establishment has a genuine reason as to why Mandela Barnes shouldn’t be the nominee, they’ve a fiduciary responsibility to disclose it in the next week.

Because otherwise, what in the actual fuck are we doing here?

[Wes - Madison DSA 🇵🇸🌹 @wes_dsa]

Love it. Make them uncomfortable.

🚨🚨Milquetoast statement from WI Gov. Tony Evers after today’s murder of Corey Ruiz in Madison.

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

We will continue to keep the loved ones and family of the individual who was killed in our hearts and prayers. His life mattered.

As folks exercise their First Amendment rights tonight and in the days ahead, we urge them to do so peacefully and respectfully.

Here is Francesca Hong’s statement on the fatal police shooting in Madison

[Acyn @Acyn]

Reporter: Should some DSAers who have called themselves communists educate themselves as to what—

AOC: It’s a free country. You’ve got people with all sorts of affiliations in this country. And the whole point is that we don’t politically persecute people. You can hold whatever views you have in this country, and that’s how America works.
