@AvakPeruvian

This was an excellent meeting and I'm glad the video of all the presentations is publicly available.

Wondering how to set up a Socialists in Office (SiO) program? Hear from SMC members from across the country, including @JorgeDeFendini and @sparklmoder, on how their chapters build up robust and effective SiO programs! Link to full video below:

Zohran field director and founding SMC member Tascha Van Auken 🐐🐐🐐

Tascha Van Auken, field director for @ZohranKMamdani’s massive canvassing operation addresses the crowd ahead of Mamdani’s speech. She shares that over 104K volunteers made over 4.4 million calls and knocked on over 3 million doors.

Funny (not really) that the things on which the DSA Convention was near unanimous are the ones we don't talk about because they didn't generate heated debate. This resolution, a centerpiece of the @DSASocMaj Platform, is among the most important adopted by the convention.

Proud that the @DSASocMaj resolution I co-authored, “Seize the Moment! Defeat Corporate Democrats and Elect More Socialists,” passed on the consent agenda! DSA will run a slate of congressional candidates & create a subcommittee to research districts 🗳️ docs.google.com/document/d/1hH…

ICE out of our neighborhoods! NPC candidate Christian A. has been on the frontlines of DSA's immigration justice work. Pressure campaigns work--organize in your local chapter to get cities to cancel their contracts with Avelo Airlines.

A reminder that Avelo Airlines is bad and DSA is good

Andrew Cuomo couldn’t allow his first, tepid recognition of reality — that the Israeli government, with the full support of the Trump administration, is starving the people of Gaza — last more than a few hours without walking it back. This is someone who believes in nothing.

The agenda is a political document and the draft falls short.

This week’s convention must prioritize debate & discussion on the major questions facing us: trans rights, Palestine, youth organizing, the climate crisis & fighting Trump. That’s why we’re proposing this agenda change. Sign your name in support! docs.google.com/forms/d/1V-00E…



It is so gratifying when your platform is rooted in your praxis.

In conclusion: Zohran’s landslide victory proves that the possibilities are endless for the Left. We must run socialists for office across the country, from school boards to Congress. We must fight oligarchy by defeating politicians on its payroll in Dem primaries.

This whole thread is 🔥.

Zohran didn't win by relying on standard turnout patterns. We had to fundamentally transform the Democratic electorate. I was part of a group of NYC-DSA members that applied lessons from our previous campaigns to design the “universe” of voters to talk to. Here's how we won 🧵

A decade into our program of party building, we celebrate the seismic shift we brought about in NYC in June and assess the road ahead. ✨ How can we make sure we continue to keep promises we make to working people whose hopes are raised? ✨ How can we build power everywhere?

Someone is having fun with you @ANCA_DC (although "Zero Bond" is an unusually cool rendition of Yerevan): a criminal, kept in office as a tool by a fellow criminal, on his way out thanks to @nycDSA and the working people of NYC.

I hear my opponents have travel plans…

We’re excited to introduce Seth W for NPC, who has been leading at the nexus of movement building and electoral politics for over a decade. Most recently, they were the Organizing and Field Director for Uncommitted and also organized in Asheville in the wake of the 2024 floods.

It's easier to talk about accountability for others than it is for those in positions of responsibility to receive criticism.

I'm sure there are both sides to this and I think it's worthwhile seeing a response, but I'm shocked at reactions calling this petty or uncomradely It seems like a pretty clearly written set of criticisms of political actions & work, and no personal judgments at all

100 Zohrans across the country. A socialist caucus in your city and state legislature. A larger, more powerful DSA. I've seen Katie do this work in a chapter of <200 members and for the entire organization on the NEC. DSA *needs* them on the NPC. Please join me in ranking them!

We want to introduce Katie S for NPC, Ithaca’s Electoral Committee Chair since 2023 and an absolutely essential member of the NEC Steering Committee since 2024. They've coordinated 3 local field campaigns to get socialists elected, including Jorge Defendini's recent re-election.

It was a huge night of wins for DSA across NYS—in addition to @zohrankmamdani & @alexaforcouncil in NYC, nationally endorsed candidates (and SMCers!) @danielatonna & @JorgeDeFendini won their Democratic primaries with @IthacaDSA & @mhvDSA, running as proud democratic socialists

Far too often, Jewish New Yorkers who stand for justice are told they're not "real Jews."  But as our Jewish members know, demanding leadership that puts working-class people first is living our values.  That's why Jewish DSA members will be ranking @ZohranKMamdani #1 on 6/24.
