Friend --
Last month East Bay DSA canvassers
knocked over 3,000 doors across Oakland in support of Bernie Sanders!
A Yuuge thanks to all those who turned out to talk with our community
and build a movement for an economy, society, and world that works for
everyone, not just the billionaires! We’re keeping that
momentum going next weekend — we knocked on 1,700 doors at the last
canvass and we want to double that this time around!
SATURDAY, OCTOBER

for All, Bernie Door-to-Door
Canvass

15TH
Team
Bernie: Debate Watch Party
4:30-8:00 P.M.,
East Bay Community Space
507 55th St, Oakland, CA
We’ll be spreading the word about
Bernie Sanders and his groundbreaking Housing
for All platform: a visionary set of policies including
national rent control, major investment in new social housing, an end
to predatory lending, redlining, and gentrification, and a plan to end
homelessness in America within five years.
Bernie understands that a housing
market built for profit, and not human need is exactly why large parts
of the country are mired in an affordable housing crisis. This rings
especially true in the Bay Area, and we want to talk to folks about
it. Bernie’s Housing for All plan would transform how
we think about housing, and guarantee a home as a human right, not a
privilege.
Bernie’s
policies are inspiring, and we know from experience that for many, the
next step to getting involved in building our diverse, working-class
movement is to meet someone face-to-face who is ready to have a
conversation about the issues that impact them and the solutions they
are so excited about! That person can be you, your
friends and family!
