We are the Seattle chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America

Seattle DSA is a chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America. We believe that both the economy and society should be run democratically to meet human needs, not to make profits for a few. We are a political and activist organization, not a party; through community-based chapters DSA members use a variety of tactics to empower working people.

What we believe

Everyone should be able to live a full and dignified life.
The economy must be run democratically; none shall be poor so another can be rich.
The abolition of poverty.
Affordable, humane housing for all.
Universal Medicare-for-all.
Free education: from pre-K to trades, college and beyond.
Democracy in the workplace; all workers have the right to organize.
Complete reproductive freedom in all forms.
An end to racial, gender and all other forms of oppression.
An end to punitive justice and mass incarceration.
An end to military and police aggression.
Democratic control over the environment to preserve the planet.
Total freedom to migrate; humanity has no borders.
