DSA-LA for Jillian Burgos Campaign Kickoff

Host contact info 224-875-1258

Join DSA-LA's very own Team Jillian for our first canvass of the season. No experience necessary!

Jillian Burgos is a true grassroots socialist, serving her community as a NoHo neighborhood councilmember, housing and homelessness advocate, and essential healthcare worker. Frequently spotted on the picket lines with DSA-LA's Snackpack, Jillian is keenly aware of just how powerful our presence is.  As an Afro-Latina from a working-class background, Burgos was CD-2's biggest underdog, and the results of targeted canvassing blew us away in the primary. Outraised up to 12X by our opponents, she enlisted the help of volunteers in her community to knock on doors and spread hope for change in the Valley. Now, our people-powered candidate needs YOU to secure her seat at LA City Council. It's time to end the status quo politics that have plagued our city for decades.

Over 100 of you joined us in petitioning for this campaign- let's keep the excitement going! We'll begin with a short training, followed by a paired canvass in the NoHo Arts District. Afterwards, we'll reconvene for a debrief and celebration over pizza and cold drinks. It'll be hot, so please dress appropriately. Cold water and sunscreen will ALWAYS be provided.

When we fight, we win!
