Hi Everyone,
This Saturday, June 26th @ 12pm is our chapter’s convention! We will be debating and voting on a variety of bylaw amendments and political resolutions that will shape our work in the year to come. You can find the agenda, with all the current proposals that will be considered (and a Zoom link to register) here. Interested in submitting an amendment to one of these proposals? We will accept written amendments to the proposals until the day before Convention, on June 25th.
If you’d like to help phone bank this week and let members know about Convention, you can register to do so here. We encourage as many people who can to attend on Saturday but if you can’t make it you can still have your vote counted. You can designate another member to be your proxy voter by letting them know how you’d like to vote, and then sending us an email to [email protected]. If you cannot find anyone to be your proxy you can reach out to [email protected], and we will assist you.
Also, if you are a member of DSA, you can expect an email invite to our new, members-only Slack! Keep an eye out for those invitations in your email inbox. Members will also be given the opportunity to sign in during Convention.

Solidarity,
