ICE Out: A National Call to Action
|
Tuesday, June 10, 2025 at 5:00 PM PT
|
In LA and nationwide, ICE is terrorizing our communities. Only solidarity can protect us against their attempts to kidnap anyone they can and trample our rights.
Hear how DSA organizers and coalition partners across the country are defending their neighborhoods from ICE today and building towards a world without ICE tomorrow. This one hour call will include examples of local strategy, national campaigns against ICE, and the practices we'll need to keep ourselves safe as we fight back.

Don't Sign! Defend the Wage!
|
Saturday, June 14 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
|
Sunday, June 15 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
|
This month, LA City Council finally passed the Living Wage Ordinance, which mandates that all tourism workers make at least $30 an hour wage. This wage increase is especially critical with the Olympics coming in a few years! But instead of paying their workers a living wage, hotel corporations are spending millions to mislead LA residents and repeal the Living Wage Ordinance with a petition. The greedy billionaires are circulating a petition to take away the $30 an hour wage for tourism workers that we just won at City Council. Don’t Sign! Defend the Wage!
In response, DSA-LA will be joining Unite HERE Local 11, SEIU-USWW, and LAANE to get out in the streets and block the Hotel Industry’s paid canvassers. We will be crowd canvassing at Farmer’s Markets, Metro Stops, and busy intersections to get in front of the paid canvassers and stop them from collecting signatures for their misleading petitions.
If you see someone collecting signatures, SAY SOMETHING! If you see signature gatherers in your community, call the Defend the Wage hotline: (909) 326-0042.
