    Screenshot of text reads: WASHINGTON, DC. Metro D.C. DSA was devastated to learn of yet another series of violent acts by the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD). On the night of August 24–25, MPD officers shot two people in separate incidents in less than 12 hours—seriously injuring one (whose name has not been released) and killing the other, An’Twan Gilmore, who was asleep in his car. We grieve and stand in solidarity with their families and loved ones and join Black Lives Matter DC and others in demanding justice for Gilmore’s killing.
    Screenshot of text reads: As an active member organization of the Defund MPD Coalition, we understand that policing is inherently violent and that members of our community, predominantly Black people, will continue to experience targeting, harassment, and harm as long as police and prisons continue to exist. That is why we are organizing for a just, three-year transition from policing and oppression to care and freedom by defunding MPD to refund our communities.
    Screenshot of text reads: While city leaders like Mayor Muriel Bowser continue to push the false narrative that putting more cops on the street is the solution to violence in our city, MPD proves every day that they are a source of harm. The police do not keep us safe. They kill us in our sleep. 

Enough is enough: We demand that the D.C. Council and Mayor Bowser defund MPD and refund our communities to ensure true public safety for all.

    NEW: High rise window cleaners in Minnesota just won a historic contract agreement with large wage raises, more sick time & an apprenticeship program. The window cleaners went on strike for ten days. Their new contract is one of the strongest for window cleaners in the country.

    The fact that the Supreme Court can unilaterally put millions of people at risk of being kicked out of their homes shows that there's something seriously wrong with our political democracy.

    Governor Walz & the Biden administration have the power to halt the construction of Line 3, revoke the permits & drop all charges against water protectors. Follow our Twin Cities chapter () for calls to action & mutual/legal aid opportunities. 4/4

    It would push our climate further into crisis. At a time when mass evictions are looming & federal unemployment benefits are running out due to deliberate inaction by Congress, we affirm the call to our elected officials to take action NOW. 3/4

    We condemn any and all escalation by state police toward the many Indigenous and allied activists taking a stand to protect our planet. This pipeline would threaten Minnesota lakes and wild-rice waters as well as treaty-protected tribal land of the Anishinaabe people. 2/4

    Capitalism is a failure and is incapable of fixing the climate crisis. Mass movements and the organized Left can though.

    Trees are a lot more important than many people think, particularly in cities. Besides aesthetics, trees filter air pollution, help prevent flash flooding, provide shade, absorb CO2, & make a huge difference in a city’s overall temperature.
