A Statement from Class Unity

We stand in solidarity with the railroad workers of America fighting for a better contract.

On Wednesday the 30th of November 2022, three D.S.A. U.S. representatives – Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Cori Bush (D-MO), and Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) – voted to impose on the railroad workers a contract they had democratically rejected. By standing with President Biden and the railroad companies against the workers and making it illegal to strike, these representatives have shown themselves to be enemies of the working class.

The representatives have turned their backs on the movement that brought them to office. The black mark they have left on the name of socialism will be a liability for American socialists well into the future.    

We condemn the traitorous actions of these representatives and call for their immediate censure and expulsion from the Democratic Socialists of America.
