If workers are going to have real power, we need the ability to stop business as usual when it matters. When push comes to shove, corporations and their politicians prioritize profits over people. That's why workers need strong, independent unions and workplace organizations. Strong unions let us fight for our interests on the job and in our communities.
Support organizers in their workplace
Organize in solidarity with union fights
Develop labor education materials
The Electoral Committee runs East Bay DSA's electoral campaigns and works closely with our endorsed elected officials to push a working-class agenda from inside government. Elections are one of our most powerful tools for building socialist power by raising demands, growing our base, and showing people what it looks like when workers fight back and win.
