Long Beach Transit is one of the best ways to get around our city. Not only does it support students, workers, and those with disabilities, but it also allows people to move within the city and not just through it. DSA-LB is organizing a campaign made of a mass coalition of transit riders and local organizations to demand a fare-free bus system in Long Beach by the 2028 Olympics. Meetings are every other week alternating between virtual Zoom meetings to debrief and make decisions about the campaign and hybrid working meetings to tackle group work to advance the campaign. Members, please check the Discord for upcoming agendas.

Please join DSA-LB for our next General Membership Meeting (GM)! These meetings are fundamental Chapter democracy since we'll discuss & debate important items that shape our organizing. As always light refreshments will be provided. To help us prepare, please register ahead of time. Your in-person attendance is encouraged, but if you can only make it virtually, please use the Virtual event to receive a Zoom link to view the meeting.  If you need a ride or want to ride transit with a buddy, please take advantage of our Comrade Carpool when you RSVP! You can also fill out the form to offer a ride as well. Parking lot priority is given to Comrade Carpools and those with accessibility needs. And if you're not a member but would like to become one today, join here!
