DSA is on the cusp of 100,000 members in the wake of Trump’s return, Zohran’s win, a livestreamed genocide in Gaza, and ICE raids terrorizing communities across the country.
Only a mass, multiracial working class movement can stop the slide into fascism and win the world we deserve.
We need you with us. Fill out our interest form and build the Philadelphia we deserve.

With our first-ever congressional endorsement, Philly DSA is ready to put our 2,000 dues-paying members to work to elect Chris and build democratic socialism across Philadelphia.
Chris is a democratic socialist from a long line of freedom fighters. As a five-term State Representative, he’s stood with workers and tenants—and in Congress, he’ll fight for universal healthcare and housing, resist Trump’s cruel deportation agenda, and end US complicity in genocide and war abroad.
We’re bringing socialism to Congress. 🌹
Philly DSA is proud to endorse Chris Rabb for Congress in PA-03.
Big announcement! Philly DSA is excited to present a night of live music with three great bands. All proceeds from ticket sales will benefit the Philly SBWU Hardship Fund, which is supporting their striking workers in a fight against Starbucks’ unfair labor practices.
