Join us Saturday for our monthly meeting! We'll have a group debrief on the elections, hear a presentation on social housing, and learn how to get involved with the @sbworkersunited.org strikes. 🗓️ 11/22 2:30-4:30pm 📍 Cambridge Public Library @ 449 Broadway (or Zoom) RSVP: bdsa.us/CDSANov25

LUCE expanded their work into food delivery, when they recognized that immigrants were afraid to leave their homes to buy food. In this time of acute insecurity, their mission is more important than ever. Please support them if you can!

Elections are over, but organizing continues full steam ahead! In the last week of signature collection, let's keep up our momentum and get rent control on the ballot! TOMORROW Tuesday 11/11 at 1PM Meet in front of the Cambridge Public Library Main Branch, 449 Broadway RSVP: bit.ly/CPLrentcontrol

We invited Sam Westby, a local bikey instagrammer, along on our HONKoween #BikeBus parade, and he produced this nice reel that’s getting some exposure over there. www.instagram.com/reel/DQzVB2A...

I was honored to speak with the Globe about our campaign. Together, we made history on Tuesday night, not just here but across the country. And we’re just getting started.

Congratulations to Ayah Al-Zubi on becoming the youngest member ever elected to the Cambridge City Council. Hats off to Ayah, her volunteers and campaign team, the dem socialist movement, and especially to the voters of Cambridge who sent her to the council on the first round of counting this week!

We stand in solidarity with workers against the world’s wealthiest university trying to deny them immigration protection and adequate benefits. Join us: bdsa.us/join

Election Day was just the beginning. On Thursday, DSA electeds @votejivan.bsky.social and @votealzubi.com rallied in support of @32bjseiu.bsky.social union workers organizing for a fair contract with Harvard.

ICE has been seizing people in Allston. Boston area folks, spread the word about the LUCE hotline to report ICE sightings. And here's stickers you can print and put up anywhere:

Be a part of the movement! dsausa.org/join

For over two years, a building movement has brought together Jews, Muslims, and allies to organize around a vision of shared safety and solidarity. On Tuesday night, our movement’s power thundered up and down the ballot, in races big and small, from NYC to right here in Massachusetts. 🧵

Thank you to everyone who supported this campaign in big and small ways. Our volunteers were the heartbeat of this campaign.

thank you ayah, thank you cambridge -the volunteers

We did it! Thank you to everyone who made this win to keep fighting for an affordable, inclusive, and sustainable Cambridge on the City Council possible. I’m so grateful to every person who knocked doors, wrote postcards, donated, talked to friends & family, and voted

Y'all we did it! We sent @votealzubi.com to Cambridge City Council, with preliminary results showing she came in for the 3rd spot out of 9 slots on the council! Democratic socialism and Palestinian liberation for the WIN www.cambridgema.gov/Departments/...

DSA congratulates @votealzubi.com and @Boston_DSA on Ayah's election to Cambridge City Council! 🎉 Ayah has already been fighting for the housing rights of Cambridge residents and will keep it up in office to make sure Cambridge is affordable and dignified for all. 🌹 1/2

We ran on making Cambridge an affordable and dignified city to live in, and making sure the most vulnerable people are heard. Everyday issues for working people were the driving force behind our campaign, and we will carry their voices into City Hall.

I am so grateful for everyone who has worked so hard on this campaign. All that work comes down to this. I know from experience that every vote matters. Please text your friends and make sure they have a plan to vote by 8pm!

I am so grateful for this endorsement from Erin Axelman, the director of @israelismfilm.com. We both know that the only true safety is shared safety, and our fight for dignity is a fight for dignity for ALL.

Get out and vote today!

Run For Something was my first endorsement in 2023, and their early support was invaluable in getting our campaign off the ground. Their work supporting young progressive candidates is so important!

I am so grateful for the community that we have built through this campaign. My name is on the ballot, but this is about all of us. 🧵

YES YOU SHOULD VOTE IN LOCAL ELECTIONS TOMORROW EVEN IF MAMDANI IS NOT ON THE BALLOT WHERE YOU LIVE

I am so honored by this endorsement. When I first joined DSA, I never could have imagined I'd be running as part of a national movement alongside other young Muslims like @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. From Cambridge to New York to Palestine, our struggles are linked. We will win through solidarity.

Tapping the sign

We're doing #GivingTuesday differently this year, donating 10% of our sales from 12PM-8PM on December 2 to five local organizations doing work that we believe meets this moment. If you can join us, RSVPing would be helpful. If not, but you still want to help, here's a thread of the organizations!

The free lunch/breakfast is such an important lifeline right now. I was talking to my SIL, who teaches in a school district that doesn't have the resources to do extra food support like Cambridge is doing. The free lunch/breakfast is as essential to her school right now as having lights.

Knocking doors today with @votejivan.bsky.social and @votealzubi.com and stopping to say hello to all the dogs 🐶 be sure to vote by November 4th 🗳️

Come join me and @mikeconnollyma.bsky.social this morning, Sennott Park at 10 am! (make sure you check your clocks!)

@mikeconnollyma.bsky.social is our OG democratic socialist state rep, and his leadership continues to pave the way for a rising cadre of bold leftist leaders changing the status quo on Beacon Hill. I am so grateful for his support in our race for Cambridge City Council.

The disastrous lapse in SNAP benefits has put a spotlight on food insecurity — an issue that was already getting worse here, especially with the loss of the Daily Table. But we can fill that void, while giving the grocery chains some healthy competition. It's time for a city-owned grocery store.

Honored to receive this endorsement from @electerika.bsky.social, an incredible champion for justice and liberation in the State House! In Cambridge, Somerville, and beyond, this election is a chance for some major wins for our movements, but it will take ALL of us.

We know times are tough and money is tight right now. Please check out these local resources for food assistance if you find yourself in need. Solidarity, not charity. Reach out to MAMAS if you need further assistance through our hotline: (339) 545-1315 or email us at: [email protected].

This morning, I dropped off some food at the Union Square community fridge and food shelf in Somerville. The only other item was a bin of green beans that looked like it was from last week's farmer's market. If you live near Union/Inman Sq, please consider contributing to the community fridge:

Remember: if you're in line for the bike bus, stay in line!

With our most vulnerable community members facing a tremendous threat due to federal food benefits set to run out Nov. 1, we are stepping up & deepening our support. Today, we joined the Community Foundation and will deploy $500K for food insecurity: https://camb.ma/4oP0Aj2

Cambridge people:

See you there! 🎺🚲🚸🎃

Housing is a human right — and should be treated as a public good. Our campaign's vision is to leverage government resources for permanent affordability.

Quinton is a true legend, who had the vision for a Green New Deal for Cambridge, and actually got it passed. I am so proud to have his #1 endorsement in this race, and I will be honored to continue his legacy on the City Council.

CAMBRIDGE (continued) Al-Zubi is a passionate advocate for Palestinian rights, who bravely came out for a ceasefire as a first-time candidate in 2023, before anyone else in the race. Her survey responses, along with those of the other candidates, can be reviewed at docs.proton.me/doc?mode=ope...

CAMBRIDGE Cambridge For Palestine submitted a questionnaire to all this year's City Council candidates. Based on the responses, they have endorsed Ayah Al-Zubi for a #1 vote. (They also recommend ranking LaQueen Battle, Jivan Sobrinho-Wheeler, Stan Rivkin, & Sumbul Siddiqui in any order.)
