Our NYC socialist party chapter met up with newly anointed Long Island members who joined out of disillusionment with the DSA. The rednecks are revolting and it is good.

we have a lot of dual members and technically the Long Island members that showed up were also dual members. The Socialist Party is similar to the DSA except for being hardline anti-Democrats and an actual party.

Cuomo is also loving home care workers as detailed in this post:

https://aintiawomancampaign.wordpress.com/2017/12/28/cuomo-stop-government-sponsored-sweatshops/

In summary, home care attendants (not live-in) funded through Medicaid are being coerced into working 24 hour shifts, but only getting paid for 12 hours. There have been court rulings in favor of the home care attendants, but Cuomo and the administration have fought back and rewrote regulation such that the victory has been short-lived.

Our Socialist Party local met with Howie Hawkins today. He�s seeking our endorsement for his run for NY governor on the Green Party ticket. He�s actually been a member of the Socialist Party since 1973; he�s running on the Green Party ticket as they actually have ballot access. He�s been trying to shift the Green Party further left, but so far there�s only some vague socialist stuff in their charter. If we could somehow manage enough signatures, he�d be happy to also run on a Socialist ticket.

Howie�s platform is a lot more progressive than Cynthia�s; she doesn�t even appear to be running as an open socialist according to her website. As one of the ultimate goals of the left should be to build an independent left party, I think the left should embrace Hawkins over Nixon, whose run is also very much a long shot. At this point, it seems like groups like DSA and Socialist Alternative are moving towards endorsing Nixon unfortunately.

http://www.howiehawkins.org/

edit: according to a questionnaire that Nixon filled out, she�s not willing to run openly as a democratic socialist, just with �democratic socialist values�. p weak sauce stuff

Nixon has definitely not said she's a socialist, and honestly probably won't.

And there are people debating endorsing Nixon in NYC DSA, true, but knowing the people pushing for it, the endorsement process, and the timeline....I really, truly doubt it will happen. That said, chapters elsewhere in the state might. I think Buffalo is already tweeting about her actually.

edit: I didn't even know she submitted a questionnaire yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was since the AOC victory, and I haven't paid attention to anything else since

here�s the link to the questionnaire:
