About Boise DSA

Committees and Working Groups (WG)

Labor Organizing Committee - Helping organize Boise workers, promoting a rank-and-file-led union movement.

Mutual Aid Committee - Meal preparation with fellow comrades for distribution within the community in coordination with other established local mutual aid groups.

Tenant Organizing Committee - TOC is best understood through its relationship to Treasure Valley Tenants United, Boise’s first city-wide tenants union. More information about TVTU can be found at its website. TOC is committed to building tenant power by organizing tenants’ associations. Tenants’ associations are formal organizations in individual buildings which, like labor unions, act as a democratic, representative body of tenants agreeing to collectively organize in opposition to their landlord. Tenants’ associations differ from tenant unions in that they represent the interests and needs of single buildings, while a tenant union such as TVTU organizes and coordinates associations to achieve collective aims, such as city-wide pro-tenant reforms.

Publishing Committee - Creates graphics, posts, and flyers to spread our message.

Electoral WG - Working to support socialists candidates for public office in idaho. Currently supporting the independent gubernatorial campaign of Maxine Durand.
