Labor Working Group
Through collaborative training and political education, CT DSA’s Labor Working Group empowers workers to organize their workplaces – unionized or not – to create democratic, militant, worker-led initiatives for collective action. We also contribute to solidarity organizing efforts by showing up at picket lines across the state to support striking workers, including those from Starbucks Workers United to Amazon Teamsters and many more.

Vote Uncommitted CT
Connecticut voters like you can demonstrate your unequivocal solidarity with Palestine by pledging to vote ‘Uncommitted’ so long as President Biden continues to fund the genocide in Palestine! On April 2nd, Connecticut voters have the opportunity to send a message to the Democratic Party and President Biden that we will not remain silent while he aids and abets Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people.
CT DSA Endorses Laurie Sweet and Abdul Osmanu in Democratic Primary for Hamden Legislative Council
CT DSA is proud to endorse Abdul Osmanu and Laurie Sweet for Hamden Legislative Council in the upcoming Democratic primary!
As incumbent legislative council members, Laurie and Abdul have worked tirelessly to represent tenants and working people. CT DSA endorsed Abdul’s candidacy in 2021 as part of the JAM slate for Council and Board of Education. Elected in the same year, Laurie joined DSA through her work with us while on the council, and has become a valued member of our chapter.
Although their colleague and our comrade Justin Farmer will be retiring from the council this year, we want to send them back to build on their work transforming Hamden in to a base of working class and tenant power.
Stay tuned for canvassing dates as we gear up for the September 12th primary!
