Hello Comrades! Take a look at what Sacramento DSA has in store this month and see how you can get involved.

 

December Events

Joint Canvass for Dr. Flo and Katie V.!

 

Date:

Saturday, December 9th

 

Times:

Shift 1: 9:30-1 pm

Shift 2: 2-5 pm

 

Location: 

Available Upon RSVP

We're building a grassroots movement to elect Dr. Flo Cofer as the next mayor of Sacramento, and to re-elect Katie Valenzuela to the city council. Together we're organizing to create a city where everyone can afford housing, feel safe, and have a voice in our future. We need all hands on deck in order to overcome a powerful political establishment. This is a people-powered campaign fueled by volunteers like YOU.

Join us to knock on doors and talk with voters about the changes they want to see in the city. Don’t worry if it’s your first time. We’ll provide training, materials, and everything you need to get started. You’ll also be paired up with a buddy unless you want to go off on your own. Lunch will be provided. 

Join us to keep growing the movement!
