✊ Help Us Fight for $15 in Georgia ✊
|
Millions of workers put their lives on the line daily for unlivable wages and unfair treatment in the workplace. And while the pandemic surges on, the 1% continues to exploit working people for profits. Enough is enough: working Georgians deserve a living wage of at least $15/hour!
Atlanta DSA has been busy over the last couple months launching our campaign to Fight for $15 — talking to working Georgians about the cost of living and why we need to fight for a living wage!

👕 Donate to Organize the South! 👕
|
Did you know that DSA is entirely member-funded?
This means we're free from the influence of corporate donors and wealthy "philanthropists" whose interests run opposite to our own.
It also means we need the help from YOU — everyday working people — to keep the momentum going for socialist organizing in the South!
|
