We are starting with a phonebank on January 9 to our members and supporters in south King County and eastside. The goal is to let them know about our endorsed candidate Stephanie Gallardo and recruit for the various city teams.
Before the phonebank, we will get a report on the status of the campaign, give a quick tutorial of how CallHub works, and a review of the phonebank script and our main asks. Then we will do phone calls for about an hour to 90 minutes, then regroup for a recap and report-back.

From Buffalo to Seattle: Starbucks Workers Push to Unionize - How can SDSA help? Next District 3 Meeting
2022-01-13 18:30 - 20:00 | Eightball Cafe in Everett, 2727 Colby Ave, Everett, WA, United States
Since the first Buffalo NY Starbucks store voted to unionize last December, Starbucks workers across the country have announced elections to form unions at nearly a dozen stores, with at least one in Seattle – in District 3 – announcing. While the number of stores at this stage are a small fraction of the over 8000 Starbucks across the country, this is an important and exciting battle against one of the biggest corporations in the US that can inspire other workers to take action and points to a growing radicalization among a layer of working people and youth. Join District 3 members to discuss the unionization efforts nationally and locally, what the workers are demanding, the potential role of socialists in these campaigns, and how we in District 3 and Seattle DSA can support their efforts.

D2 Discussion: New Struggles & Looming Disaster for the Dems at the Midterms
2022-01-27 18:30 - 20:00 | At the park NE of Brighton Playfield (42 Ave S/Juneau S), 42 Ave S/Juneau S, Seattle, WA, 98118, United States
We invite you to join us for a discussion on what we can expect in the year ahead:
New Struggles & Looming Disaster for the Dems at the Midterms
Thu, Jan 27, 6.30pm
No rain? → Outdoors, in person at the park NE of Brighton Playfield (42 Ave S/Juneau S) – Mask up please!
Rain? → Zoom meeting (we’ll send the link if needed)
Starbucks workers are organizing from Buffalo to our very own Seattle, making history for the food-service sector. Meanwhile, activists are preparing for May 1st actions to cancel student debt, while the Biden Administration makes increasingly clear this is yet another promise they will fold on. Defenders of reproductive rights are mobilizing to the best of their ability with very little leadership from mainstream liberal organizations.
It’s a time of both raised class-consciousness, and a feeling of incredible helplessness. The Democrats catapult toward disaster at the midterms, leaving space for dangerous and disingenuous right wing politicians and media outlets to paint themselves as populists. It’s up to the left and the labor movement to provide an alternative.
Jane MacAlevey said last month: “We need way more picket lines and a very different approach to them from [Biden’s] administration, or we are going to face a brutal, brutal discussion a year from now when the House and the Senate are lost … and the possibility of ongoing Trumpism.” We can add: we need way more protests to defend abortion rights, many more actions to fight racism, and many more people involved to build toward a powerful socialist movement.
However, these are scary times and many feel futile. Let’s discuss what DSA can do to build toward a powerful alternative based on the power of the multiracial working class.
See you on Thursday, January 27, 6.30pm! Hopefully in person in the park near 42 Ave S/Juneau S, or – if it rains – over Zoom (in that case we will send around a link and let everybody know that we are not meeting in person)!
In solidarity,
Your D2 CoConveners
Harris Liebermann, Phil Rudd, Stephan Kimmerle

Dark Clouds and Green Shoots: The Looming 2022 Midterm Disaster, DSA & New Struggles Next District 3 Mtg
2022-01-27 18:30 - 20:00 | Eightball Cafe in Everett, 2727 Colby Ave, Everett, WA, United States
Last year was hard. This year offers the same. But it also offers hope – Starbucks workers are rising up to unionize. Moreover, last years 10/2 Womens March for reproductive rights points toward the potential for mass struggle to defend Roe v Wade and broadly reproductive rights. Green shoots beneath the debris.
However, dark clouds are on the horizon.
With sinking poll numbers and large portions of Biden’s agenda in tatters, calls for a course correction are growing as fears of a bloodbath in the midterms mount. Jane MacAlevey said last month: “We need way more picket lines and a very different approach to them from [Biden’s] administration, or we are going to face a brutal, brutal discussion a year from now when the House and the Senate are lost … and the possibility of ongoing Trumpism.” We can add: we need way more protests to defend abortion rights, many more actions to fight racism, and many more people involved to build toward a powerful socialist movement.
Join District 3 members (all are welcome!) to discuss why the Biden administration is flailing, what DSA electeds could be doing, and what DSA can do to fight for reforms and build the socialist movement in 2022.

Let’s get out there and talk to our neighbors about the DSA-endorsed campaign of Stephanie Gallardo for Congress.
We are starting DSA for Gallardo activities in south King County and eastside, and this will be our first winter tabling event!
Look for the Seattle DSA table near the fountain across from Regal Cinema.
