Join the January Chapter Membership Meeting to discuss our rally to demand Rep. Adam Smith supports a ceasefire! We’ll also be discussing Raise the Wage Renton and the final push:
January Chapter Membership Meeting This Tuesday, Jan. 23 7pm Southside Commons 3518 S Edmunds St Online option available
Seattle DSA is organizing a rally outside the offices of Democratic Party U.S. Congressman Adam Smith, a high ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee - which is tasked with funding and arming US imperialism- to demand he support a ceasefire. While 64 Representatives and Senators have called for a ceasefire, Smith has not. Unfortunately, this is not surprising. Smith has enjoyed lavish donations from the defense industry to fund his election campaigns - in fact his top 2024 campaign contributions came from the war industries and the pro-Israel lobby! |
