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.

"Their goal is to demoralize you. Their goal is to scare you out of action. Their goal is to bully you out of standing up for what is right for the working class of the world. But we are not defeated." National Co-Chair @ahsheek.bsky.social at yesterday's March for Palestine in DC.

We had a blast collecting tons of signatures with our candidate Giselle Martinez last weekend!🚀 Newburgh’s Ward 1 residents were eager to talk to us about the issues that matter most to them, like clean water, beautiful public parks, and fare-free public transportation. 🚰🌳🚌

The image shows a diverse group of eleven people posing outdoors on a brick-paved area, possibly a park or public square, with leafless trees and residential buildings in the background. The group is dressed warmly, suggesting a cool weather setting. They are standing and kneeling in two rows, holding clipboards and flyers. Most members are smiling, creating a sense of camaraderie. Several flyers prominently display an image and text, although details are not clearly visible. The sunlight casts shadows on the ground, indicating the picture was taken on a sunny day.

If you’re looking for hope and inspiration right now, hit the streets with @mhvdsa.bsky.social this Saturday! A better world is within our reach if we organize for it. We can all start by talking to people we know + people we don’t know 😉 actionnetwork.org/events/daniel-atonna-campaign-canvass-day

2025 is a big year for local elections! Our socialist electeds have been leading the charge for affordable housing, stronger tenant protections, and a ceasefire and arms embargo. Now, we’re fighting to reelect Giselle Martinez to Newburgh's City Council to represent Ward 1!

MHVDSA’s Skill Share Initiative kicked off to a great start as members organized to help install a series of storage shelves in two members' home. 🛠️ 🌹

This image shows a group of six people posing indoors. They are all smiling and appear relaxed. The group is positioned in a cluttered area with shelving on the left and various items stored on the shelves. The background includes some boxes and containers. Four people are standing at the back, while two others are kneeling at the front. They display a sense of camaraderie, with some raising a fist. One person is wearing a white face mask. The lighting is warm, providing a cozy feel to the scene.

The image shows a group of four people assembling shelves in a room. Two individuals are kneeling on the floor: one is holding a shelf in place while the other uses a power drill. Another person is standing, securing the top shelf. A woman is sitting on the floor, smiling while assisting with the assembly. The shelves are lined with canned goods and storage baskets. The room has a bright, natural appearance with a light tiled floor and a ladder leaning in the corner.

Fire Elon Musk, not federal workers! Yesterday we rallied in Newburgh in support of federal workers, who deliver our mail, keep our parks open, ensure we have safe food and water, and so much more.

A group of people stands on the front steps of a United States Post Office building, characterized by a brick facade and a prominent white stone entrance. Two large black street lamps flank the group, which is holding various protest signs. The steps are covered with light snow. The participants display a variety of expressions, from smiles to serious looks, with some wearing winter clothing like coats and hats. The signs they hold include phrases like "Support Federal Workers," "Fire Elon," and "Fight the F/Elon," indicating a protest against a prominent individual named Elon.

Yesterday, our chapter members rallied with @sarahanaforassembly in Albany to launch the Rent Emergency Stabilization Act (REST Act), a bill that will make it much easier for upstate municipalities to adopt rent stabilization.

The image shows a diverse group of people gathered on the steps of a building, seemingly for a protest or a rally. They are holding various signs advocating for housing rights. The individuals are wearing casual attire, with some wearing winter hats, indicating a possible cold climate. In the foreground, a woman stands at a podium, speaking into a microphone. To her left, a man in a gray suit stands with his hands clasped. Architectural details, such as ornate columns and stonework, frame the scene, suggesting a historic or governmental building. The group appears engaged and attentive.

We won’t forget: @nyulangone.bsky.social’s cowardly assault on trans healthcare is just one part of a right-wing campaign that’s also targeting our immigrant communities, our entire healthcare system, and ALL our human rights 2/3

Last night thousands of New Yorkers turned up on a moment’s notice to demand @nyulangone.bsky.social stop cutting off healthcare to trans youth. As more and more hospitals capitulate to authoritarian attacks on our healthcare system, we know this fight is just beginning 1/3

We sent 2,600 letters to Biden, held constituent visits with our reps, made countless phone calls and gathered over 50 signatures from politicians and unions like @uaw.org pressuring Biden to lift the SSOT. And we WON. There is nothing like the power of solidarity!

Today marks 9 days until Trump takes office again. 9 days before leaving office last time, he imposed devastating sanctions on #Cuba, triggering a humanitarian crisis. What will Biden do with his 9 days left? thehill.com/latino/50450...

Here are all the congressional dems who didn't vote against, and all the republicans who didn't vote for, the trans segregation bill banning participation in sports. there can be a lot of reasons for "not voting", including not being there due to health or travel.

NO WAY OUT BUT THROUGH: Turning Trump’s Wreckage Into Transformation
