DSA's second largest chapter has voted overwhelmingly to call on AOC to run for President in 2028. Groundworkers in LA worked to draft this resolution, which will allow DSA-LA to prepare a slate of downballot candidates, discuss AOC with labor, and start basebuilding and fundraising across LA.

GW member Allison K. outlines why member polls and "paper members" are not things to be wary of but instead opportunities to expand the active layer of the organization. Our goal is to stir millions of people into political action; that requires deliberation AND mass input.

Groundwork NPC Member Eleanor B. asks DSA members to show up on Sunday and demand the NPC listens to convention and gives YOU a vote on our 2028 Endorsement Process! Every member deserves a say in who DSA endorses for president!
We’re making the most important decision recent DSA history - to run for President in '28. We can win unions for all, build renewable energy, and prosecute MAGA. Groundwork National Political Committee member Frances talks about why the NPC should pass the proposed endorsement process unamended.
In 2025, DSA voted to unite Labor & the Left to run for President in 2028- so let’s get started! For months, a multi-tendency committee has been crafting a plan to allow members to debate and weigh in on a '28 candidate. Now that plan heads to a vote by the National Political Committee this Sunday!
Paul, GW member and Sonoma County DSA Electoral Co-Chair, built the field operation for the Joanna Paun campaign from the ground up. Paun went on to win her primary by 16 pts, proving that DSA & mass politics were a force to be reckoned with despite the chapter only being a little over a year old.
James I., GW member and NYC-DSA Steering rep from the Bronx/Upper Manhattan, has been with Team Darializa since the beginning. He joined her kitchen cabinet in December when Darializa was seeking DSA endorsement, and was a strong advocate for demonstrating how her campaign fit GW's theory of change.
Excited to see Hasan recognizing the work of NYC-DSA and Groundworkers within it to set a model of socialist co-governance that delivers on campaign promises, expends political capital to invest in public services, and is responsive to asks from mass movements!
I think @groundworkdsa.com makes the case there is a coherent, unique "democratic socialist" politics via Ralph Milliband, Stuart Hall, Poulantzas, and Gramsci that goes beyond social democracy and is a neo-Leninism for the developed nations. I sorta disagree but appreciate them taking it seriously
Groundwork NPC member Eleanor B. and GW Caucus Co-Chair Joe W. were interviewed by Middle East Eye on how Israel's genocide of Palestine and aggression across the Middle East factored into their votes in the New York Democratic Congressional primaries:
Groundwork believes public pressure works when used in the right ways. We are proud of the result here and especially proud of NYC-DSA Co-Chair Gustavo G. and the rest of our GWers on Steering. We will continue to fight for a New York that invests our money in helping people, not policing them.

GW NPC member Kareem E. was in @thenation.com last week laying out three truths: 1. The Left can not sit out the 2028 Presidential Election 2. AOC is the only candidate that can cohere a left wing base and win 3. To cohere, she must address her failures on Palestine www.thenation.com/article/poli...
Why AOC Needs to Apologize for Her Infamous DNC Speech
She has the potential to unify the left in 2028—if she addresses her decision in 2024 to carry water for people committing the most severe crime of the 21st century.

Democratic socialists are on the rise in Trump-era mayoral races
The rise is fueled by a backlash to Trump policies, economic strain and fatigue with the Democratic establishment. A possible win in Washington, D.C., might be next.
