On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

The fight for immigrant justice is a fight for the very survival of the working class – for our families, our communities, our neighbors, our union siblings, and for those people who haven’t yet won the protection of a union. Read our full statement: dsausa.us/6-10-25ICE-Statement
Statement, DSA National Political Committee. End the Raids, Lift the Ban, Drop the Charges! DSA Stands with Immigrants. On 6/4/25, the Trump administration re-enacted a travel ban preventing nationals from 12 countries from entering the United States. Two days later, ICE began violent, military-style raids in Los Angeles, detaining over 100 Angelenos, including labor leader David Huerta, president of the SEIU California State Council. The fight for immigrant justice is a fight for the very survival of the working class—for our families, our communities, our neighbors, our union siblings, & for those people who haven’t yet won the protection of a union. The ICE raids in Los Angeles are meant as a show of brute fascist strength—but solidarity is a force more powerful than gravity. We call on DSA members to pour into the streets, organize & fight to defend our immigrant communities. We welcome you to join us, as the largest socialist organization in the US, in our struggle for a more dignified & just world for all.

Last week on instagram, I asked why New Yorkers should NOT vote for Andrew Cuomo in the June Democratic Primary. More than 500 people replied. What it really comes down to? New York City deserves better.
We asked New Yorkers why they weren’t voting for Andrew Cuomo this election and got 500+ responses.1. He loves Trump, featuring five responses that discuss Cuomo’s refusal to stand up to Trump. 2. He loves the rich3. He resigned in disgrace after accusations of sexual harassment

 A large crowd of protesters marches down a city street lined with tall buildings. At the front, people hold four bright red banners that read "New York City Democratic Socialists of America" with a white torch logo. Many participants wear red ponchos or winter clothing. Behind them, others hold signs including one that says “Stop the Genocide,” another with a face illustration, and others expressing political messages. The protest takes place in Midtown Manhattan, with recognizable buildings and a Starbucks storefront visible.

It's simply untrue that, compared to 2017 mass resistance, we are seeing mass quiescence. February '25 saw 2x as many protests as Feb '17. This data doesn't include Bernie 'fighting oligarchy' huge rallies, or the disruptions at GOP & Dem town halls. But there are differences 1/3

 A screenshot of a New York Times headline that reads, "Can Zohran Mamdani, a Socialist and TikTok Savant, Become N.Y.C. Mayor?" The subheading states that Mamdani, a progressive state assemblyman from Queens, is building a new coalition of voters focused on addressing New York City's lack of affordability. The header includes the New York Times logo and a minimalist navigation bar.A screenshot from a New York Times article discussing the impact of Zohran Mamdani's mayoral campaign on the New York City Democratic Socialists of America (NYC-DSA). The article highlights that NYC-DSA has added 1,500 new members from diverse racial and age groups since endorsing Mamdani. It mentions Mamdani’s confrontation with Tom Homan, a top immigration enforcer, as a pivotal moment that resonated with New Yorkers' frustrations. A quote from Gustavo Gordillo, NYC-DSA co-chair, emphasizes that people want to defend their rights against authoritarian policies while also pursuing an offensive strategy with Mamdani’s campaign providing a vision for that.
