Tampa Democratic Socialists of America

Welcome! We are the Tampa chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). DSA is the nation’s largest socialist organization, with over 100,000 members and chapters in every state. We are a “big-tent” political organization open to everyone who shares the socialist vision of building a better world beyond capitalism. We believe that both the economy and society should be run democratically to meet human needs, not to make profits for a few.
