Labor Committee Meeting
2025-07-28 @ 18:30 - 20:00
https://actionnetwork.org/events/july-labor-committee-meeting-2https://actionnetwork.org/events/july-labor-committee-meeting-2
Workers have tremendous power to fight back against a system that treats them like dirt. As socialists, we believe the workplace is a key site of struggle that connects members of the working class and shows them the collective power they have to win a better world.
Pittsburgh DSA supports labor organizing through:
Solidarity with workers (Supporting their picket lines, rallies, and other calls to action)
Helping to mentor workers looking to organize their workplaces (through EWOC)
Connecting socialists and union members who want to make their unions stronger, militant fighting organizations
Developing and training our members and the community.

Councilwoman Deb Gross will be joining us to discuss our recent victory in City Council, where we helped achieve a 7 week hold on the Cop City vote. Despite this temporary win, there's plenty of work to be done in the coming weeks to ensure that no Cop City gets built in Pittsburgh.
We also have two endorsement-related items on the agenda: we'll be holding a vote on whether to override our endorsement subcommittee's decision to take no stance on Theron Gilliand, Jr.'s campaign, and we'll begin discussion on our new endorsement subcommittee that will work on updating our chapter's endorsement process.
