Whether joining educational resources, discussing local issues to plug into, or changing the shape of our current chapter, this is an exciting time to be a part of our chapter. The agenda for Friday's meeting will touch on these points:

- The possibility of moving back to in-person business meetings
- What the best platform(s) for regular communication are within our chapter.
- Official endorsement for Dev Atma Khalsa
- Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee: Free online labor organizing training is available from EWOC.
- Update on Chainbreaker's Midtown campaign: Survey results and more in this English+Spanish presentation

Vote: Official Endorsement for Dev Atma Khalsa, County Magistrate Judge

We previously talked with Dev Atma, who is running on a progressive, non-punitive and rehabilitative platform for Santa Fe County Magistrate judge. He emphasized he wanted to follow the example of 1st District Circuit Court Judge Jason Lidyard (who was profiled by the Washington Post) by helping people who are suffering from addiction or otherwise stuck, instead of putting them behind bars. We will hold a vote on our chapter's official endorsement of Dev leading up to the Democratic primary on June 7th.

Meetups Over Coffee

Join your local DSA members in a morning chat at Starbucks. This is a great opportunity to discuss current events, build friendships, and informally bounce ideas about what you'd like to see from our chapter.

The next meet-up is Saturday, April 9th, at 8:45AM
780 St. Michaels Drive (Freestanding location, not the one in Smiths)

Note: As of this writing, no Starbucks in New Mexico are publicly unionizing. While we're hoping to observe useful things at our local Starbucks locations, this is not an explicit unionizing effort, and will include no initiating of organizing dialogue with Starbucks staff.
