URGENT ACTION NEEDED ‼️ MN legislature is considering giving $26 million for a polluting waste facility. Call your legislators today and demand that they refuse to fund this facility without community engagement and HERC closure! Find your reps here: buff.ly/IkCJtDB

TCDSA is proud of our members and the Minneapolis community who confronted the militarized police force yesterday at Bloomington Avenue and Lake Street. No Justice, No Peace! Abolish ICE in the Streets! sahanjournal.com/public-safet...

They tried lie about an ICE presence. MPD assisted with closing off the area. This is completely wrong.

I am at Bloomington and Lake to understand whats taking place this morning. On scene are DHS, ICE, FBI, Sheriffs, and MPD. No matter the reason, one thing is clear: this display of force is designed to strike fear at the very heart of MPLS. We stand in solidarity against it.

Today, federal agents come into our city with a military style presence. Our community showed up to care for one another. I know you’ll continue to be in the streets, standing up for our immigrant neighbors, bearing witness, and telling agents of cruelty to leave.

Our chapter had a great time at Grand Old Day in Saint Paul on Sunday! Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth to learn more about DSA, the campaign to replace I-94 with the Twin Cities Boulevard, and the Saint Paul Ward 4 Special Election!

Thank you to everyone who came to our Minneapolis Door-Knocking Kickoff yesterday! We had over 60 volunteers attend and knocked over a thousand doors for @omarfatehmn.com, @sorenwithward8.bsky.social, @adamformplsparks.bsky.social, and @michaelforparks.bsky.social! (1/3)

Catch us tabling at Grand Old Day in St. Paul today! We’ll be here until 6pm

This is today!

Make sure to join us tomorrow for our Minneapolis Door-Knocking Kickoff to get a Super-Volunteer Punch Card! If you attend 10 door-knocks, you'll get a prize! (1/2)

Our office was attacked overnight. Windows were smashed but nothing was taken. We believe this was a targeted attack over our organizing for Palestine & against US imperialism. We won’t be intimidated. Join us for a press conference, 1 pm on Monday 5/26, at 4200 Cedar Ave, MPLS.

Join the SocFem Book Club Relaunch! We'll meet on Friday, 5/30 at the TCDSA office: 2708 E Lake St #204, Minneapolis, MN 55406. The reading pick is: "The Origin of Family, Private Property, and the State" by Frederick Engels. See you there!

Does your Free Palestine activism center Palestinian liberation? Listen to “Popular Cradle” with Palestinian Youth Movement’s Rhiannon, Mohamed and Yara and join TCDSA today to stand in solidarity with your Palestinian comrades!

I-94 construction chaos clearly shows why we need mass transit along the corridor. A boulevard with rail, bus and bike lanes would move more people faster and safer, and with far less chaos and pollution, than the highway ever could.

Please join us for our May General Meeting! We'll be meeting at the Minneapolis Central Library Pohlad Hall (300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, MN 55401). Doors open at 5pm, the meeting will be 5:30pm-8pm. More information is at buff.ly/HWrKd5V

Let's Talk About a General Strike: 3rd Worker's Assembly for the Twin Cities. Join workers on Saturday, 5/17 in St. Paul!

Action Alert!! TODAY!

I was 7 years old when my family learned our then-undocumented parent had a breast tumor. Without urgent treatment we couldn’t afford, she had limited time before it became cancer. Healthcare coverage for undocumented Minnesotans, regardless of their age, is personal to me 🧵

I’m extremely disappointed that Gov. Tim Walz, Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy, and DFL House Leader Hortman abandoned our communities. They made a deal with the GOP to strip away healthcare from undocumented residents. 1/

Solidarity Saturday phone-bank! Join us while we call Delta workers to motivate toward union election. This Saturday at the Machinist's Union Office 7851 Metro Parkway, Bloomington

While the federal government seeks to mass deport our neighbors, legislative leaders and Gov. Walz have struck a deal to end state health coverage for undocumented adults. This is capitulation, at a time when state and local support for people at risk from the Trump Administration is most crucial.

Wolves in 5! Two term Frey!

We had a great kickoff two weeks ago for @coleforward4.bsky.social, our endorsed candidate for St. Paul Ward 4's Special Election! We have some more upcoming volunteer events we want to share below. (1/3)

Join us for our door-knocking kickoff with @sorenwithward8.bsky.social, @omarfatehmn.com, and @michaelforparks.bsky.social + @adamformplsparks.bsky.social. Training and buddies for first time door knockers! 🔥⚽ BBQ Social & Soccer after! buff.ly/ee9MRJ1

St Paul City Council voted to raise your rent, again. While majority of CM’s gutted rent control and prioritized developers, we’re proud of TCDSA endorsed CMs Nelsie Yang and Hwa Jeong Kim along with Cheniqua Johnson for standing strong with tenants.

Join our friends at Zero Burn!

I’m thankful that the MN State Legislature expanded access to MinnesotaCare in 2023. My dad has been able to receive cancer treatment and healthcare as a result of this. It’s been a blessing. Unfortunately, there’s a real threat that this will be gutted during the last few days of session. 1/

Congratulations to Soren Stevenson and Council Member Robin Wonsley on the outcomes of the Ward DFL conventions this past weekend!

Thank you to everyone who dropped by at the Mayday parade and festival on Sunday! We had great conversations at the table and the energy to celebrate community solidarity was beautiful 🌹
