Mass Calls & Chapter Collaboration
Our May Campaign Huddle‘s topic was campaign debriefing. We heard from NYC, Chicago, and Los Angeles DSA organizers in public power and transit on how they debrief during campains as a part of overall strategy. Check out the slides here, and sign up for our July Huddle on comms and building narrative. After this call, two chapters reached out to our committee on starting up GND/B4P campaigns in their chapters.
We hosted a panel in June featuring Anne Marie Drolet (TWU 320 Los Angeles), Richard Marcantonio (People’s Transit Alliance campaign, East Bay DSA member), Samantha Evans (Fix The CTA Campaign, Chicago DSA Member), and Lillian Brents (President of ATU Local 1447, Louisville) on Building for Power in Mass Transit. Watch, download, and share the call here to see how — and why — DSA are important players in this fight!
