ORGANIZE FOR POWER! 6 WEEK COURSE! Deadline to Apply February 2nd

?

SacDSA has been invited to participate in O4P's 6-week core fundamentals course! ?This course is co-hosted by the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung and based on the teachings of labor organizer Jane Maclevey (RIP), who this chapter was fortunate to host as a guest in the summer of 2018. ?In this course, members will strengthen their skills as organizers and learn how to effectively organize workplaces, communities, and campaigns. ?


O4P trainees will meet once every week on Thursdays starting February 13th until March 20th for two-hour sessions and participate in group assignments designed to develop their campaign organizational skills. Meeting times will either be 9:00am-11:00am (Track A) or 5:00pm-7:00pm (Track B); ?groups have to have at minimum 10 people, so we would only be able to sign up for a track(s) if there are at least 10 people available for a time slot. If you are interested in participating:

?

1. Contact us before February 2nd (just reply to this email)
2. Inform us of which track(s) you would be interested in or able to participate in.

  • Demand Gavin Newsom Deliver On His Campaign Promise, MEDICARE FOR ALL!
    • Rumor has it Newsom might be considering a push for a watered-down so-called "single-payer healthcare" bill. Considering his abominable record protecting workers, renters, and the poor, it's reasonable to suspect Newsom will half-ass this legislation too! ?We will settle for nothing less than full, complete comprehensive healthcare for all in California. In other words, WE DEMAND MEDICARE FOR ALL! ?Call the Governor's office to demand Newsom stay true to his word for once! Tel: 9164452841. ?Don't forget to call your rep in the legislature too! ?
