Yesterday, we joined 1,500+ New Yorkers in Albany to demand that Governor Kathy Hochul TAX THE RICH and fully fund universal childcare, while protecting Medicaid, SNAP, and essential services from federal cuts.
We must continue to pressure our reps to pass NY For All, Dignity Not Detention, and the MELT Act: mhvdsa.org/stop-ice
“From the ICE detention center being proposed in Chester to their secret office in New Windsor, the message is loud and clear; our community does not want ICE here in the Hudson Valley or anywhere." - Giselle Martinez, MHVDSA member and local socialist-in-office.

What’s RADICAL about DSA’s HOUSING agenda in New York? 🧵
New Yorkers know the truth: the most radical thing about housing in New York is that there’s too little of it, and it costs too damn much. ⬇️
The murder of Renee Nicole Good by ICE agents is the predictable and tragic outcome of an agency that is designed only to inflict violence. Join us tonight in Kingston to honor the life of Renee, and the countless other victims we've lost to state violence. #AbolishIce

Here in the Hudson Valley, we're at the forefront of a historic PUBLIC POWER fight to replace Central Hudson with a publicly-owned utility. We can build enough to power to win this only when supporters like you organize with us and become leaders of this movement.

Jamaal Bowman & Sarahana." Below this, large red text in all caps reads, "Building Power to Take Over," followed by even larger white text that says, "Central Hudson!"

To the right of these images is a circular logo with the words "Mid Hudson Valley DSA" encircling an illustration of a rose and clasped hands over a grid pattern.
