Chapter priorities

While Tidewater DSA has a number of transformative goals in Hampton Roads, we acknowledge the limited nature of what our organization can achieve with the resources available to us. In line with our democratic principles, every year there is a convention that elects not only our chapter officers for the year, but also our primary focuses. These priorities are then re-evaluated during year on our Mid-Year Chapter Review.

Of course, identifying priorities does not mean that our work will stop there. We will continue to respond to conditions and promote socialism in the dynamic and evolving political landscape in Virginia and the United States as a whole.

TDSA’s current chapter priorities are as follows:

Yes-On-All-Three
01 / Yes-On-All-Three

On the front lines for repro rights, queer rights, and voting rights

Want to fight to ensure that the right to abortion, the institution of gay marriage, and the ability for someone convicted of a felony to vote? Want to build DSA organizational capability and its connect to everyday communities? Tidewater DSA is waging an independent campaign to push for victories on these three important constitutional amendments on the ballot this November.

Community Meals
02 / Community Meals

Building a more resilient community


Tidewater DSA is building community by creating cheap and free meals in a common location that are open to all. By placing our resources together to provide a collective solution, we can organize together to build stronger and more resilient communities.
