==Denver abortion protest==
According to [[Keegan Estrella]] and [[Jonce Marshall Palmer]]  On May 5 2022 [[Students for a Democratic Society - Denver]] led a march of several dozen students and community members from Auraria Campus to the office of U.S. Senator [[Michael Bennet]] to deliver a list of demands to encode legal access to safe abortions for all. 

Denver SDS was joined by [[The Brazen Project]] and the local chapter of [[Freedom Road Socialist Organization]].

In response to a draft opinion written by Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito released to Politico on May 2 that points to the dissolution of the federally protected right to abortion in the United States, Denver SDS led a march on the tri-institutional Auraria Campus. The march began outside Tivoli Commons on campus. Chants like “Abortion is healthcare!” “Bans off our bodies!” and “Ho ho! Hey hey! Abortion rights are here to stay!” boomed from the crowd as they marched towards the senator’s office.

Students marched to Senator Bennet’s office to demand that the Democrat do everything within his power to codify Roe v. Wade into law. Students then delivered an official statement with demands including the codification and expansion of the right to safe, legal and accessible abortion. This includes voting for H.R. 3755, the Women's Health Protection Act of 2021; free contraception and abortion pills; eliminating any mandatory waiting periods or counseling before seeking abortive medicine, and protecting the right to seek an abortion across state lines without threat of criminal charges.

[[Katherine Draken]], a rank-and-file UPS Teamster and member of FRSO, remarked in her address to the crowd, “Capitalism hurts working women and trans people in insidious ways. The worst thing capitalism does to promote gender oppression is the separation of oppressed peoples and keeping them from understanding the thing that draws them together in solidarity is that they are all working people who are exploited.”<ref>[http://www.fightbacknews.org/2022/5/8/denver-sds-fights-roe-marches-senator-s-office]</ref>

==Denver-Aurora Community Action Committee==
Denver, CO - on Monday, October 24 2022, community members gathered at the Denver City Council Building to make their voices heard regarding Denver’s public budget for 2023. Mayor [[Michael Hancock]] seeks to spend almost 37% of the city budget on Public Safety. Though this is a slightly smaller percentage of the budget than last year, the proposed plan will spend an additional $45 million on Public Safety as compared to 2022.

“If the police can’t maintain adequate staffing, curb police brutality, or decrease the level of crime with nearly 40% of the city’s budget, then it’s clear to me that those funds would be better spent virtually anywhere else. And it is a testament to this fact that all these folks have come out today,” said [[Jonce Marshall Palmer]], chair of [[Denver-Aurora Community Action Committee]], during their remarks to the City Council.

Continuing the struggle for justice in the LoDo shooting, about 40 people gathered to voice their opinions that the proposed budget allocates far too much for policing and not enough for the social issues that lead to crime. DACAC also recognizes that the police themselves are committing crimes against those they are supposed to protect. As DACAC member, [[Kyle Burroughs]], says, “If the LoDo shooting had been perpetrated by any other group in the U.S., this would be called domestic terrorism.”

DACAC, however, contends that a higher budget won’t lead to justice. “I think that it is irresponsible to put more funds in the hands of a force that was ultimately responsible for the mass shooting that injured Jordan Waddy and six other innocent bystanders,” says DACAC member [[Cole Hamilton]], “Let’s give less money to cops and more money to the people that are harmed by them. We’re fighting to reduce that budget and they won’t listen. What we need is community control over the police. What we need is democratic control over the police budget so that the people can decide what’s good for themselves.”<ref>[http://www.fightbacknews.org/2022/10/26/denver-city-council-pushes-bloated-police-budget-people-speak-out]</ref>
