Congratulations to Marek Broderick of Green Mountain DSA, we proudly endorse your re-election to Burlington’s City Council!

Marek’s time so far on the city council is marked by his dedication to protecting renters, supporting students, and public service!

When students at UVM organized for better living conditions, Marek listened, and acted! The city council passed a resolution to address the deteriorating dorms thanks to Marek’s action and students’ organizing!

DSA is proud to continue fighting alongside Marek for a better Burlington!

Marek is part of a slate of candidates in the Socialist Cash Takes Out Capitalist Trash fundraising project!

Milquetoast retellings and moderate cooptation cannot bury radical Black history. Socialists would do well to remember that as we build our movement.
