🧵1/4: We were founded in 2015 from a coalition of socialists, labor advocates, progressives, and independent voters. Our campaigns included referendums on rent control and community safety, support for undocumented residents, and fighting to make ward services more inclusive and democratic.
We’re hitting a deep freeze soon. So hit some doors tonight before it sets in, then phone bank with us on Saturday! We’ll have Saturday pizza to warm up. 🍕

Thank you Rep. Ramirez. And bigger thanks to Chicago's Left—esp. @33rdwardworking.bsky.social, @ctulocal1.bsky.social, and other UnitedWorkingFamilies.org orgs—for producing and co-governing with Rep. Ramirez.
Let us all call our US reps, telling them to cosponsor Ramirez's "Melt ICE Act": reps.fyi

We need to elect strong leaders who will actually stand up and fight for the public. We can't keep electing the same corporate Democrats and expect anything to change.
Have you seen his “Proven Progressive” signs?
While State Rep. Jaime Andrade Jr. claims to be a “Proven Progressive,” he's raked in more than $1.2M in contributions from the same interests he claims to oppose: tax-dodging billionaires, corporations, and lobbyists.

If you live in Chicago and want to get involved in local organizing, I would be happy to connect you with folks near you! My friends at @33rdwardworking.bsky.social are also a great group to reach out to!
Sincere question and I hope we can make a safe place for this discussion, are there people out there who feel like they don't know how to get involved and make a difference?
What do you feel like the barriers are for you getting involved in organizing?
Have you tried and failed?

Sam Nugent cosplays as a progressive when it suits her. She is not.
26 Aldermen threaten to shut down Chicago's government to protect their Corporate funders. They'd rather increase taxes on your beer and liquor, and push you to gamble away more of your hard-earned money on video slots.
But there is still time to take action!

Ald. Lawson is once again letting us down. The grinch caucus that he’s on is not the future of our city. Raise to the moment & side with the people or be voted out.
