What we're about
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.

Publicly-owned power systems represent one of the most powerful means to bring energy justice to our community. This session will describe the current state of DC's electricity utility, how a publicly-owned municipality could lower rates, prevent shutoffs, and increase the shift to renewable energy, and how DSA's WePower DC campaign is organizing to bring about this bright future. Learn how the fight for public power will help us build power.
This is a hybrid event. The in-person event will be at the Cleveland Park Neighborhood Library, Meeting Room 1. Those who wish to attend virtually can RSVP on Action Network HERE and will be provided with a Zoom link.
If you have questions or to request accommodations, please email [masked]. Please make sure your COVID vaccinations are up to date. Masks strongly recommended.

Democratic Socialists are fighting to make single-payer Medicare for All healthcare a reality.
JOIN US
Help us fight to replace our fractured and broken health system with a unified Medicare for All system.
In order to get our politicians to buck their billionaire donors and side with the majority, we have to threaten them with a mass political movement. But the movement we need cannot be built overnight.
That’s why we need each and every person to get involved. Winning Medicare for All will mean establishing a piece of real democratic socialism and building a broader working-class movement to take on the elite and the billionaire class.
