Public ownership of our energy utility, Central Hudson, is not an end, it’s the means—to keep rates low, empower workers, and get us a 21st century grid. A new study estimates it would also save us money immediately! hudsonvalleypowerauthority.com/feasibility/

In our first candidate endorsement since 2021, we are proud to endorse Adam Bojak for NYS Assembly. @bojak4assembly.bsky.social Our full statement: buffalo-dsa.org/statements/b...

Last week, I visited @socialists.nyc. I joined members at a @sbworkersunited.org picket line, talked to their candidates and incumbents, observed an endorsement forum, and attended a social. The chapter that elected Mayor Zohran Mamdani isn’t slowing down! Join DSA: act.dsausa.org/s/3869.URaPuG

My name is Diana Moreno. I’m a Queens mom, an immigrant organizer, and a proud democratic socialist with @socialists.nyc. I’m running to replace @ZohranKMamdani.bsky.social in the Assembly in the upcoming special election to deliver on his affordability agenda and fight the rising tide of fascism.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Grateful to the voters and supporters who made this victory possible. 120+ volunteers knocked 6,000+ doors. 250+ donors contributed $20,000+ (no corporations or developers). To the people of city of PK Ward 8, I'll always fight for you and put Poughkeepsie Over Profit 🌹

Hey New York, if a certain senator has you looking for a political home that won’t bow to fascists and oligarchs and still has a spine, join @socialists.nyc socialists.nyc/join

The Dutchess County legislature has been controlled by Republicans for 46 of the last 48 years. But progressives made the difference in flipping control for the first time in 18 years. PS—With Daniel, the Poughkeepsie Common Council will have a socialist! www.poughkeepsiejournal.com/story/news/p...

Congratulations @danielatonna.bsky.social 🎉💗🙏🏽 we’ve been mutual on the other app a long time & we were reading the dem socialists who won locally & I recognized your name! My husband also realized he might’ve met you in person at the Shireen documentary viewing in Gardiner! Wishing you much success!

Daniel Atonna is our latest DSA-endorsed candidate! A member of @mhvdsa.bsky.social, he’s running for Poughkeepsie Common Council Ward 8 to fight for housing, climate action & working-class power. 🌹 Read on 👇

I canvassed for @nywfp.bsky.social candidates Emma Arnoff, Trevor Redl, Alix Winsby and Yvette Valdés Smith.

Before he was a Senator, a candidate for President, and our greatest champion in the fight against oligarchy, Bernie Sanders was the four-term Mayor of Burlington, VT. I sat down with Bernie in Astoria to talk about the lessons he learned—and the work ahead.

For @thenation.com, I wrote about the trend of young Democratic candidates attempting to duplicate the aesthetics of the Zohran campaign, without the ideological foundation, economic populism, or authenticity that made it successful. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Masked ICE agents pulled back from a raid in Rochester, N.Y. on Tuesday as about 100 protesters crowded the street outside the location shouting “shame” and “Gestapo." www.huffpost.com/entry/federa...

I attended @demsocialists.bsky.social National Convention with @mhvdsa.bsky.social! DSA is the largest socialist org in the US with 80,000+ members. Our platform: tax the rich, union power, protect immigrants, free Palestine, Green New Deal, and guarantee healthcare, housing, and education to all.

Central Hudson is raising our energy bills for 3 years to fund millions in executive bonuses 🤬 Pressure from @mhvdsa.bsky.social and For the Many won a lower rate increase, but I join them to demand a public takeover!

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 🧵

This month I joined a rally to save the Newburgh-Beacon Ferry, marched with 1199SEIU healthcare workers demanding a fair contract at The Grand in Poughkeepsie, spoke at a Good Trouble protest co-hosted by For the Many and @mhvdsa.bsky.social, and attended an Ulster-Dutchess WFP gathering 🏃

ICYMI: Our socialist-in-office was featured in @cityandstateny.bsky.social last week! Our chapter has never let its small size come in the way of big goals. Sarahana was a MHVDSA leader before she was a candidate, and there's so much more left to win. Read the article (& join DSA!) ➡️ bit.ly/3UnUbOJ

A month ago yesterday, PK Ward 8 said Yes to Atonna! I’m honored to be the Democratic nominee to represent the neighborhood where I grew up. My campaign mobilized 100+ volunteers to knock 3,000+ doors. Thank you to the voters for believing in me. I’ll fight every day to put Poughkeepsie over profit!

We have 666 members in good standing 😈 RSVP for an upcoming DSA 101: bit.ly/mhvdsa101s Join DSA: dsausa.org/join

It was a huge night of wins for DSA across NYS—nationally endorsed candidates (and SMCers!) @danielatonna.bsky.social and @jorgedefendini.bsky.social also won their Democratic primaries with ithacadsa.bsky.social and @mhvdsa.bsky.social, running as proud democratic socialists

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Vote @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social #1 for NYC Mayor on 6/24. He’ll lift up working class New Yorkers! He will freeze the rent, make buses fast and free, implement universal childcare, tax the rich, and stand up to Trump. Join @socialists.nyc to organize and win! Polls are open Tuesday 6 AM to 9 PM.

I’m running a clean campaign for Poughkeepsie Ward 8. Sadly, my opponent (who ran for office as a Republican 6 times) is using Trumpian tactics to attack me. I’ll stay focused on the issues that matter to residents. Voters will reject negativity on 6/24 🗳️ danielforpk.com

I’m asking for your vote to be your Poughkeepsie Ward 8 Councilmember. As a community organizer, I helped pass a city law regulating short-term rentals like Airbnbs. As a candidate, I’ve mobilized 70 volunteers to knock 2000+ doors. Vote early June 14-22 or on 6/24 🗳️ danielforpk.com

We know what we have to do to save our city from Andrew Cuomo. We're cross endorsing 🤝 @bradlander.bsky.social

I’m honored to be endorsed by the Dutchess County Central Labor Council, CWA 1120, and my union @workersunitednynj.bsky.social in my campaign for Poughkeepsie Ward 8. I stood with labor to save our Social Security office, protect our Post Offices and win fair contracts. Solidarity! danielforpk.com

Advancing anti-trans legislation is advancing fascism. Fight for trans rights by sending a letter to your New York reps demanding they protect Trans Rights.

Our May Day BBQ in Kingston was a beautiful success! We shared food, sunshine, and great conversations between members new and old. ☀️ We’re building a strong, vibrant community here in MHVDSA, and we’re fundraising to keep it growing. ⬇️

This May Day, we hit the streets of Newburgh with Amazon workers, farmworkers, postal workers, teachers, and immigrant organizers, all rising up for justice on the job and in our communities.

Oh my god you want me to find "evidence" before putting someone in jail? Every time?? Do you have any idea how long that would take

🎉 It's official — our endorsed candidates @danielatonna.bsky.social and Giselle Martinez are officially on the ballot with over 600 petition signatures combined! Now, we're gearing up to WIN on June 24th.

Our campaign collected 262 signatures from Poughkeepsie Ward 8 voters (3.5 times the minimum to be on the ballot)! Our vision for a city that resists Trump, replaces lead pipes, repaves roads and protects tenants and homeowners is resonating. Come canvass: bit.ly/mhvdsacampaigns2025

Nearly 400 students and recent graduates have seen their visas revoked by immigration officials in the weeks surrounding the arrest of Columbia alumnus Mahmoud Khalil, igniting concerns about students' First Amendment and immigration rights.

Last Wednesday, we won Good Cause in the the Town of Poughkeepsie—the largest municipality in the Mid-Hudson Valley where a third of the population is made up of renters! We won't stop until all tenants have the protections they deserve. Join the fight by reaching out to [email protected]! 🏡

Hundreds of thousands took to the streets yesterday for a nationwide demonstration against fascism.

I live in the city of Poughkeepsie Ward 8, which borders the town of Poughkeepsie. The city passed Good Cause Eviction tenant protections last year. Last night, the town passed it too! I was proud to play a leading role in both campaigns. Renters everywhere deserve rights! 🏘️

Every New Yorker deserves to be safe. Today, I’m announcing a plan to deliver exactly that. Our Department of Community Safety will implement evidence-based strategies that will prevent violence and crime before they occur. Learn more at zohranfornyc.com/safety

It may be doom and gloom on the news, but there is power brewing in the streets! Inspiring turnout in Newburgh yesterday as we joined @lettercarriers.bsky.social, @apwu.bsky.social & workers from all over to protect the USPS and fight against the attempted privatization of our government.

I'm proud to be endorsed by @nywfp.bsky.social, For the Many, @mhvdsa.bsky.social and @nypan1.bsky.social ahead of my Democratic primary in June! I have worked tirelessly to build the Left to defeat the fascist far-right. I am a member of these 4 orgs and many Poughkeepsie Ward 8 voters are as well.

Chuck is backed by $$$. We are backed by each other. Let’s build a way out of this nightmare. Join DSA & get involved 🌹 ➡️ MHVDSA.org/join

“Here’s my hope … after this election, when the Republican party expels the turd of Donald Trump, it will go back to being the old Republican party.” This is a delusional take based in wishful thinking, instead of objective reality.
