NYC DSA Racial Justice Working Group

In April, we released our comprehensive policy plank (bit.ly/defundplatform) and City Council candidate pledge (nycpublicsafetypledge.com) to share our vision for real public safety and budget justice. In the time since, 36 city council candidates have signed our pledge across 23 districts (out of 51). Read more about why & how we want to defund the police in our medium article at bit.ly/peoplesbudgetpost

Join us tomorrow at 7pm for Abolition Everywhere, featuring the Healthcare Working Group!

Join us tomorrow at 1pm for a joint canvass with the @brandonwestnyc campaign! We'll meet at 382 McDonald ave before heading out to knock on some doors to spread the good word about Brandon & Defunding the police. RSVP at bit.ly/d4bjune2

Jaslin Kaur (D23) is a DSA for the City council candidate that has pledged to fight for care, not cops, for her district. To reject campaign contributions from the PBA and other related unions. And if elected, to vote NO on any budget that does not #DefundNYPD by $3B during her term. I want a future that thrives and doesn’t target people like my family, working-class, immigrant people, who generate millions of dollars in revenue for our city but never see a return for it. A... commitment to defunding the NYPD is a commitment to the collective future of our entire city and a world where every single person can live a dignified life. Join Team Jaslin at a canvass or phonebank this week: https://jaslinkaur.nyc/volunteer/ Learn more about the pledge to defund the NYPD and refund our communities at: www.nycpublicsafetypledge.com #carenotcops #publicsafetypledge #defundnypd
