The rest of 2020 is about defeating Trump and #VoteWFP so that we can live to fight another day & take on Cuomo
2021 will be about #DefundNYPD, #CancelRent, and other unfinished business
It matters less whether you join @NYWFP or @nycDSA, but to win the above, join at least one

No, at least I've heard of no such thing. I'm 40, and I know some members in
@QueensDSA who are in their 50s or 60s. Did you hear that from someone, or did someone experience a rejection?2 réponses 0 Retweet 4 j'aime -

I’ve been told in person that you don’t support candidates over 40.

Jamaal Bowman was endorsed this cycle. He’s 44.

Ok, I’m almost 40. What does that have to do with policy? DSA is pretty clearly an org that centers policy in the process.

We’re not talking about policy. We were talking about Members & candidates seeking the endorsement that are older than 45.

The claim was that candidates over 40 weren’t supported. I’m not trying to be agitating, but it’s just not true. Our chapter has quite a few members in their 50’s and 60’s.pic.twitter.com/nwt8SqWcL9

Imo, no candidate should be turned away from an endorsement due to their age. As Shawna said, policy platform should be critical to endorsement. Maybe viability as well?
I’ve never known DSA not to center policy platform in their endorsements.2 réponses 0 Retweet 3 j'aime
Can confirm I was never asked my age by DSA for any purposes

I can confirm that it happened to two Latino candidates that are over 45. Both were too old to be progressive.

I’ve *never* heard of a comrad being told they’re “too old to be progressive”- I mean, we enthusiastically backed an 87 year old for president. It’s just a situation that doesn’t seem realistic, in light of multiple Gen X DSA candidates also being endorsed, as well.
