Join us at our General Meeting on Monday 10/21, we're voting on endorsing the Green New Deal Policy proposal by Gulf South for a Green New Deal!
New Orleans DSA for a Green New Deal
Last night at the Democratic Debate, Senator Sanders again called climate change the greatest threat in history. He demanded a Green New Deal that will create 20 million jobs and end our reliance on fossil fuels, and here in Louisiana we are fighting to make that happen!
New Orleans DSA has joined in a coalition, Gulf South for a Green New Deal ([link removed]) . New Orleans DSA is demanding a Green New Deal for Louisiana with over 50 organizations! New Orleans DSA and Baton Rouge DSA ([link removed]) are the only explicitly socialist organizations in this coalition, so it's up to us to present a clear socialist perspective.
At our General Meeting on Monday 10/21 we'll be voting to endorse the Policy Platform ([link removed]) created by Gulf South for a Green New Deal. Through this debate we'll sharpen our strategy for environmental justice organizing. If you have time, read the Policy Platform in the link above!
