YDSA UW-Madison Wins Five Seats in ASM Elections
Press release from UW-Madison YDSA
We are so pleased and proud to announce that three of our candidates have won in the ASM elections Wednesday night — Gabo Samoff for College of Agricultural and Life Sciences and Student Finance Services Committee, Bobby Gronert for College of Letters and Science and Student Finance Services Committee and Tristan Englemann for College of Engineering (five seats total).
These wins signal that students are dissatisfied with the university and Trump crackdowns on free speech on our campus, that students will not settle for university complicity in the ongoing genocide in Palestine or any other attacks on marginalized students, faculty or workers by the Trump administration — attacks on undocumented and foreign students, trans and reproductive healthcare, layoffs and cuts to university workers. We say socialism beats fascism.
We want to thank everyone who chose to support us in the elections and let you know we are here to fight for and with you. We will do everything in our power to resist repression and encroachments upon ALL students and faculty, fight for justice on our campus and everywhere and are excited to work with you very soon. Let this be a reminder that we are not powerless, and we still win in the darkest of times; a better world is possible. We are only getting started, let’s celebrate this win and keep up the fight!
Internationalism Working Group
Internationalism Working Group
The Internationalism Working Group (IWG) aims to build solidarity with global movements for a more just world. We are committed to opposing militarism and global capitalism from the capital of the U.S. empire. Through direct action, political education, and coalition building, we seek to put global solidarity at the center of our socialist practice.
Palestine solidarity is our foremost priority for the foreseeable future and our chapter is committed to stand with the movement for Palestinian liberation. We are working to deepen our organizing for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions on Israel, including by participating in national DSA’s Stop Fueling Genocide campaign against Chevron. We seek to leverage our position in DC to support the demands for an arms embargo on Israel and an end to US support for the Zionist ethnostate.

Free Mahmoud Khalil – Protect Student Activists
Mahmoud Khalil, Columbia University activist, was unjustly arrested by ICE on March 8th in what is a clear attack for his pro-Palestinian work on campus in the spring of 2024.
Mahmoud was forcibly abducted from his New York apartment and now detained in Louisiana. ICE even threatened his wife with arrest, a US citizen who is 8 months pregnant. The Trump admin is attempting to revoke Mahmoud’s green card and deport him without criminal charges and without providing evidence.
In a post on Truth Social, President Trump applauded ICE for this arrest and promised more to come. In an earlier post, he claims they will freeze all federal funding for any school, colleges, or universities that allow so-called “illegal protest.” Coming from the guy that pardoned even the most violent of the January 6th Insurrectionists, we know this isn’t about legality but simply silencing speech he disagrees with.
First they came for Mahmoud Khalil and I’m gonna fucking say something!
Our comrades in NYC DSA have set up a few ways for you to take action now!
Call your members of Congress – using the provided script, demand action to secure Mahmoud’s release and protect the rights of activists.
Email your elected officials – urge them to take immediate action to stop the targeting of student activists and immigrants.
Let’s make one thing clear: we will not allow our communities to be silenced or terrorized. The fascists in the White House are hoping this will have a chilling effect on political speech and protest. And that’s why we need to be fired up!
