DSA Cleveland 🌹

National conventions of the Postal Workers (APWU) and Teachers (AFT) passed resolutions in 2024 supporting the @UAW's call for more unions to line up their contracts to expire next on May 1, 2028: labornotes.org/2024/12/big-un…

NEW: Police in Ohio are defending their soon-to-be new ability to charge hundreds of $$$ for footage, saying it protects against harassment. Attys fear for transparency. Here's how Ohio police justify charging for bodycam vid: @WEWS @WCPO @OhioCapJournal news5cleveland.com/news/politics/…

A new generation of young, diverse, fired-up worker-organizers around the country are embracing one of the oldest tactics in the pro-union handbook: salting. My latest for @TeenVogue, with thanks to @jazbrisack @_ericblanc @RankAndFileProj for their insights! (Link in reply)

Now through the end of the year, you can stream UNION (@unionthefilm) and support EWOC at the same time! A percentage of profits directly support our work. bit.ly/UNIONEWOC UNION (@unionthefilm) follows the Amazon Labor Union's historic journey to victory (@amazonlabor).

Don't forget! You can still check out UNION (@unionthefilm) before the end of the year and send a portion of the profits to EWOC. It's a great way to see the power of the labor movement in action and support it at the same time. 💪 bit.ly/UNIONEWOC

JUST IN: 5,000 SBWU baristas on ULP strike shut down 300+ Starbucks stores today 😏 Let’s hear it for union power✊

More than 300 Starbucks stores and 5000 BARISTAS are on an unfair labor practice strike today! This is the largest ULP strike EVER in Starbucks’ history. ❌📝NO CONTRACT NO COFFEE❌☕️

These last few days have been some of the most amazing of my life. Out on strike, standing side by side in the blistering cold with my brothers and sisters as we fight for a better world. Amazon is coming to the table whether they like it or not. Our movement is unstoppable!

Thank you to one and all who joined us on the picket line as we call seek to finish this with a contract we deserve! No contract! No coffee!

The Democratic Party has let us all down. Now, we have to fight back together as a working class. DSA is here to fight Donald Trump in every state and every city. We will not stop until we beat the right and win socialism. dsausa.org/join

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.

Congratulations to our now re-elected, @DetroitDSA champion for the working class, Congresswoman @RashidaTlaib! We are so proud of Rashida’s tireless advocacy on behalf of the residents of MI-12, for standing for working people, and for standing against American imperialism.

We need a militant working class movement to defeat the fascist billionaire class trying to destroy this country. Join @DemSocialists today. act.dsausa.org/donate/members…

We were glad to play the role we did in defeating Amendment 2 in Kentucky and protecting public school teachers and families. Join us for the next fight! loom.ly/nkrWxg4

When we wake up tomorrow, there will be abortions that need funded, no matter where you live. A collective of folks who send a dollar or two to a local abortion fund *will* make the difference.

I've seen enough. I'm calling it. (It as in the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee, because my coworkers and I have seen enough of management's bullshit and want to learn how to start a union.) workerorganizing.org/support/

Today is great day to join DSA! dsausa.org/join

Ever think "I need a union," but don't know where to start? SATURDAY, you can start learning how to build a union from the ground up. Five weeks, five sessions, and you'll have the basics. It's free, and workers in your industry will be learning with you. workerorganizing.org/training/

Demand that Cuyahoga County divest from fueling and financing genocide: actionnetwork.org/letters/divest…

After doubling down on Israel bonds, residents want to know why @chrisronayne invested @CuyahogaCounty in their exclusive fossil fuel supplier Chevron in June. finance.yahoo.com/news/chevron-c…
