Frontline Workers vs. COVID
Celebrate the morning after May Day with Detroit DSA’s frontline workers panel. Hear from nurses who demanded PPE, Detroit bus drivers who struck for their safety, autoworkers fired for whistleblowing <[link removed]> and more.
Chapter Endorsements
We will be voting as a chapter on an endorsement for Representative Rashida Tlaib. She joined us for a virtual Town Hall <[link removed]> last month to answer questions from members.
We will also vote on whether to endorse Abraham Aiyash for the late State Representative Isaac Robinson’s seat (Michigan House District 4).
Tlaib and Aiyash have both been recommended for endorsement by the Electoral and Steering Committees. There will be opportunity for discussion at Saturday’s meeting. Only dues-paying members of Detroit DSA will be eligible to vote.
We look forward to seeing many of you on Saturday morning!
