DSA Los Angeles

SHAKE UP LA!

Los Angeles is under attack by ICE, billionaire bosses, racism, oppression, and Trumpism – and the status quo is failing to meet the moment.


It's up to us all of us to fight for democracy, economic justice, affordable housing, a free Palestine, and a sustainable city that is environmentally friendly and accessible for all. Only together can we build an LA that works for the many, not the few.


The Los Angeles chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA-LA) is proud to endorse nine of our fellow members – a team of union leaders, renters, tenant organizers, parents, and activists – who are committed to working class values and ready to create real change across Los Angeles.


  • Nithya Raman for Los Angeles City Mayor
  • Marissa Roy for Los Angeles City Attorney
  • Angela Gonzales-Torres for California's 34th Congressional District
  • Estuardo Mazariegos for Los Angeles City Council District 9
  • Nolan Southerland for Burbank City Council
  • Mike Van Gorder for Burbank City Council * 
  • Stephen Post for West Hollywood City Council
  • Estefany Castañeda for Centinela Valley Union High School District Board **
  • Yaritza Gonzalez for Inglewood Unified School Board of Education Trustee, Area 3

** The Castañeda campaign is currently configuring online fundraising
