Support the Appeal of the SFMTA RV Ban!

The Homelessness Working Group is helping fight SFMTA’s ban on RVs parking overnight around the city, and we need your assistance! RVs are critical homes for those who would otherwise be on the street — but the city keeps punishing vulnerable people.

Speak out by filling out this form to email the Board of Supervisors, asking them to overturn the RV ban. And save the date to give live public comment on December 10!

Events & Actions

It’s Election Day – Get Out the Vote!

Join comrades on the Dean and Jackie campaigns for the final Get Out the Vote (GOTV) push today! We are getting out the vote across the entirety of Districts 5 and 9 for our endorsed candidates and reminding folks to vote yes on L for transit funding and yes on 5 and 33 for affordable housing and rent control.

Volunteer dispatching will be happening all day from 9:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. today. We will be knocking on doors and making calls to remind folks to turn in their ballots and raising DSA’s profile with our own brochures promoting yes on Props 5 and 33. Our campaigns have been building up momentum for over a year and we are finally at the finish line. We are well positioned to finish strong across the city—only 20% of ballots have been submitted so far!

Limited edition merch is on the line! If you volunteer for an entire day, you’ll earn a 2024 Socialist Power Grab long sleeve t-shirt as a badge of honor to show off your contributions to the struggle.

Join at the Dean HQ at 1630 Haight St or the Jackie HQ at 3389 26th St to plug in. See you there!

Get Out in the Field and Get a T-Shirt!

If you’ve been considering doing some door-knocking but haven’t yet found the right motivation, let this be it! DSA SF is giving out free t-shirts exclusive to volunteers who meet either (or both!) of the following criteria:

• you’ve completed 6 field shifts for a candidate campaign between October 11th and election day on November 5th
• you’ve one a full day of Get Out the Vote work for one of our candidate campaigns in the days right before the election

T-shirts will be arriving soon, and we can’t wait to give them out, so let’s give it our all and show SF the power of socialist organizing and get this socialist power grab done!
