How We Win Socialist Policy:
Philly Gathering
When: Saturday, September 21st
Where: Philadelphia, PA (See registration form for venue and lodging details)
Join us for “How We Win Socialist Policy: Philly Gathering” – a regional gathering for democratic socialist elected officials convened by the DSA Fund.
Building on last year’s inaugural How We Win conference, this exclusive event will convene invited elected officials and their staff for a one-day gathering in Philadelphia to share experiences in office, exchange strategies on the big issues affecting our cities and states, and think together about what the policy agenda landscape may look like next year and beyond.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to connect with like-minded peers around the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. We win when we stand together and share resources to build working class power. Join us in September to continue to build a space for socialist public officials to share ideas, resources, best practices.
What attendees are saying about recent How We Win events:
“Being in space with others who share your base values of humanity is very fulfilling, this work can feel so isolated but we are all connected. You also learn so much from each other!”
“So grateful for the check in. It is so affirming to be with people who are struggling with similar issues (and not be called crazy).”
“The energy from getting a bunch of DSA electeds together was electric! The movement is here, happening, and full of love.”
