🚩JOIN THE COMMUNIST PARTY USA TODAY🚩 🏗️ We can't continue to settle for less than we deserve, working people of all backgrounds must come together and build something better. If you believe: 🛠️ That the people that do the work should get their fair share. ⚖️ That racism, sexism, queerphobia, and all other types of oppression should be fought and eradicated from society. 🕊️ That we must do everything possible to stop American imperialism and genocide and achieve world peace. 🗳️ That what little democracy we have now should be defended from fascists like Trump. 🚩 That the only way forward is a new system, not just reforming what we know is designed to exploit us. 🤝 Then the CPUSA is a political home for you. You don't need to be well-read or experienced with organizing; you just need to care. If you have questions or concerns, reach out here and we'll help. Use the link in our bio to join today, we'll see you in the struggle. Are you ready to fight back today?

📢ALL OUT FOR MAY DAY It’s time to tell elected officials, monopolies, union-busters and the far right, WORKERS OVER BILLIONAIRES! This International Workers’ Day, take the streets with organized labor and community groups to show working class power to the billionaire class! ➡️In addition to the Workers Over Billionaires program, we’re demanding: •Six-hour day, no cut in pay – automation and the adoption of AI should make life better and more secure for workers, not less. Share the wealth we produce. •Equal pay for equal work – across race, gender, and immigration status. •Break up the big monopolies! •No union-busting – pass the PRO Act! •Tax the rich! Fund jobs, housing, schools, and healthcare. •Cut the military budget, close the bases, end the forever wars! •Hands off Cuba! No war on Iran! •Boycott Target and all corporations that have backed away from equal opportunity. •No ICE, no raids, no occupation of our cities – defend immigrant workers as our own. We’re going to rolllllll the movement on! May 1st at 4pm!

PHILADELPHIA - Any educator could tell you that students and schools need more resources, not less. The proposal to close over a dozen Philly schools is a major step in the wrong direction - read the article using the link in our bio.
