1. Climate is a key terrain of struggle for 21st century socialism 2. Build the working class. Classes do not naturally exist, they are made. 3. Build DSA into a proto-party organization, an institution by and for the working class. 4. Develop an expanded, more diverse membership of highly effective socialist leaders. 5. Organize and win mass, transformative campaigns 6. Wage class struggle elections 7. Prioritize labor and class struggle as workers 8. Rapid response to politicize major crises
