About us
Welcome to the online home of the Metro DC (DC/MD/Northern VA) Chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)!
The DSA is the largest and fastest growing socialist organization in the United States. We believe that both the economy and society should be run democratically—to meet public needs, not to make profits for a few. DSA's members are building movements for social and economic justice while fighting for change in our communities and workplaces.
Stay connected by following us on Facebook and Twitter.

Phonebank for Janeese Lewis George and Aparna Raj
1436 U St NW, Washington, DC, USPlease join the DC Electoral Working Group in phonebanking DC members for our chapter-endorsed candidates Janeese Lewis George for DC Mayor and Aparna Raj for the Ward 1 seat on DC Council. Both Janeese and Aparna are relying on grassroots donations to power their campaigns, and DC will match donations from residents 5:1, meaning a donation of $50 turns into $300 for the campaign—enough to pay for a day's worth of literature for canvassing.
Janeese is neck-and-neck with her opponent on donations, who is receiving max donation checks from corporations and wealthy donors. Aparna is about 110 maximum donors (who chip in $50!) away from reaching the public matching cap! Every chapter member you're able to encourage to donate will be critical in getting Janeese and Aparna elected in June.
We will meet in-person, and pizza will be provided. Please bring a charged phone and your laptop. No experience is necessary! We'll have a script and folks there to support you as you make calls!
If you'd like to participate virtually or help make calls asynchronously, reach out to Brandon W on the MDC DSA Slack.
