Proud that the @socialistmajority.com 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/1...

Another convention in the books! Thank you to all our delegates, alternates, volunteers, and supporters for their hard work and organizing this past weekend. Congratulations to our new NPC members, Christian, Clayton, Jeremy, and Katie!

Rank our slate of organizers for a DSA NPC ready to seize the moment and defeat the far right. 🌹

Announcing SMC's recommendations for this weekend's National Convention. See you all tomorrow bright and early!

As we head into three days of deliberation that will shape the next two years of DSA, NPC candidate Leslie C articulates how we can seize the moment and fight ICE through coalition building, civil disobedience, and contesting for state power. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

See you all in Chicago!

Notice anything about our new look? 👀Make sure to follow us on social media for the latest updates from Chicago as we head to National Convention! ✨

Zohran Mamdani has produced one of the biggest political upsets this century, David T. writes in The Agitator. NYC-DSA, which endorsed Zohran last October, is primed to further an ideological battle with and within the Democratic Party. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

We need to prioritize debate on key organizing questions -- such as how our org will face the Trump admin, how to fight for trans rights, how to stop the genocide in Gaza. Sign on HERE to support our proposed agenda change! 2/2 docs.google.com/forms/d/1V-0...

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-0...

Our second interview was with @mademoisellep.bsky.social , @christianaraos.bsky.social, Katie S, Leslie C and Jeremy C from the @socialistmajority.com caucus. Watch it here: www.youtube.com/live/te_9W0z...

New in The Agitator: The second of two articles about the One Member, One Vote proposal we've endorsed for next week's convention! Alex Pernsteiner argues that 1M1V is a major step towards making our organization more democratic & responsive to our base. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

New in The Agitator: Two new articles about the One Member, One Vote proposal we've endorsed for next week's convention! First, Mike D. dissects the sharply conflicting assumptions behind the 1M1V debate about what internal democracy is and what it's for. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

Today, several of our members were arrested with @jvplive.bsky.social for simply demanding that Israel stop starving Gaza by letting aid in and ending the genocide.

Thank you to everyone who joined our call tonight! You can watch the full recording here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B3m...

In The Agitator, David Duhalde argues for passing the SMC resolution “Workers Will Lead the Way” unamended at next week's Convention. To build a socialist labor slate, we must view our labor & electoral strategy as 1 united task—not 2 separate programs. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

I'm MCing this fantastic call tonight! Please register 🫡

TONIGHT: Join us at 8pm EST / 5pm PST for “Party Building: Lessons from the Zohran Campaign and Beyond.” Featuring: @claireforqueens.bsky.social @danielatonna.bsky.social @jorgedefendini.bsky.social @alvar0l0pez.bsky.social @aaronnarraph.bsky.social @cgmaisano.bsky.social @katiesims.bsky.social

On building power: I'm a base-building and party-building supremacist. I joined @socialistmajority.com because it included many of the DSA members I admired most. Six years later, I remain in SMC because we know how to party-build. Check out how we do it at this public call: bit.ly/partybuilding

9 more days until National Convention! Get hyped by watching our SMC NPC slate highlight reel. vimeo.com/1103571615/9...

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 we raise? How can we build power everywhere?

We’re honored to run Renée P for a 2nd NPC term! An election attorney and organizer, Renée was a key early architect of the NYC & national DSA electoral strategies. She’s worked for key endorsed campaigns, from Bernie to the MI Uncommitted campaign, which she introduced to DSA

We’re excited to introduce Christian A for NPC, Co-Chair of DSA’s IC Americas group. Over the last five years he’s helped build relationships with parties like PT and Morena, and recently co-drafted the charter and launched the International Migrants Rights Working Group.

We're continuing to introduce each member of our NPC slate! Last week you met Jeremy Cohan, Leslie Chang, Clayton Ryles, Katie Sims, and Seth Woody. Each of these candidates helped co-author our platform resolutions, which you can read on our site. www.socialistmajority.com/2025-platform

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.

Today we want to introduce everyone to Clayton R for NPC, a militant labor organizer and elected leader on DSA-LA’s Steering Committee. As an organizer with UAW Region 6, he’s helped postdocs form organizing committees, through contract campaigns, and prepare for strike votes.

We're excited to introduce Leslie C for NPC, a founding member and leader of DSA-LA's Eastside Branch. She is currently at the forefront of fighting ICE in LA: giving know your rights presentations, supporting campaign development, and building coalitions with community groups.

NPC member Colleen J explains how the Red Star caucus's recent takeover of the Growth & Development Committee has led to internal dysfunction, conflict, and an unhealthy and anti-democratic culture — and forced her to leave. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

We're excited to introduce Jeremy C for NPC, a longstanding NYC-DSA electoral powerhouse. A socialist who studies teachers unions, political economy, philosophy, and Marxist theory, he recently worked on his 30th (!!!) DSA campaign with Zohran for Mayor.

This week we're excited to introduce each member of our NPC slate! If you / your delegation would like us to speak at an upcoming meeting, have a question for our slate, or want to help us win a mass politics majority in August, please fill out this form: bit.ly/SMCslate2025.

Earlier this month, SMC members across New York City gathered to celebrate @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's incredible win. Across the campaign and across DSA, SMC can be found at EVERY level of leadership - pushing forward our vision of a better future and a DSA focused on winning.

New from The Agitator—NPC candidate @christianaraos.bsky.social and DSA IC Steering member @silverman-jana.bsky.social examine the IC's history and pitfalls a statement-oriented approach to internationalism. They suggest a focus on work, not words, can offer an effective path forward. Link below:

In The Agitator, @emacinstl.bsky.social argues that the threat of a strong fascist government and the inability of the Democratic Party leadership to effectively counter it increases the necessity of building a united Left to offer an alternative. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

On the eve of NYC's primary day, we revisit David T's September 2024 article about why NYC-DSA should endorse Zohran. His clear vision and analysis help us reflect on what it means to confront power and organize to overcome long odds. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

Socialist Majority is excited to announce our 2025 NPC candidates! We are proud to be running a slate of such strong, diverse, and experienced organizers. Learn more about them during our candidate forum call on Sunday, July 6th at 4PM PT / 7PM ET. RSVP at bit.ly/SMCslate2025

As we approach the NYC primary, Rebecca H responds to her chaptermate by explaining the history of using third party ballot lines by NYC DSA in recent years and why SIOs like @jabaribrisport.bsky.social question such a strategy after his own experience www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

Joel Brooks, a tenant and long-time labor organizer, is running for Jersey City Council in Ward B. He aims to expand affordable housing and is running on a platform for more school funding, much-needed infrastructure improvements, and better public transit. ✊
