ABOUT THE PSL

The Party for Socialism
and Liberation

The Party for Socialism and Liberation is fighting for the immediate needs of poor and working people and for the socialist transformation of society. Capitalism cannot and will not solve the crises that threaten to destroy humanity: catastrophic war with Russia and China, climate change and unmanaged artificial intelligence that will replace millions of jobs. 

The billionaires get richer, and the Senate, the Supreme Court and the banker-control of the Federal Reserve manage the affairs of the ultra-rich as millions continue to sink into debt and poverty. Poverty is now the fourth leading cause of death and 75% of all Americans between the ages of 20-75 will be among the “current” poor or near poverty, it is clear that vast majority of people in this country cannot have a future while capitalism allows the ruling elite to thrive and grow their profits while life and work worsen for the working class. 

In order to emancipate the workers, we have to build a socialist movement, anchored in a multinational organization, that fights for a socialist transformation and abolishes the tyranny of the market, that abolishes the rule of private property and profit.  

We are fighting for a planned economy, the democratization of decision-making, production and distribution that works to our collective resources and labor to meet the needs of the people and the planet. The market, capitalist exploitation and a profit motive will no longer dictate who gets access to life-saving medicine, who has a place to live, who gets evacuated from a flood zone or who goes to prison. 

There are two choices: it’s capitalism or it’s socialism. We choose socialism because it’s possible and necessary. We know we cannot wish socialism into existence -- it takes political organization and uniting millions of people of all backgrounds for a common goal and a common vision -- that we have no choice but to take power from the tiny elite and give it to the vast majority -- to the water protectors, the climate activists, the students, the political prisoners, the immigrants, the farmers, the women, the workers, the poor, the LGBTQ fighters, the anti-racist organizers. 

Join us in the ongoing fight. This is about more than one election or one campaign. It takes building an independent political organization. We are in over 50 cities across the United States and counting with multinational and multigenerational leaders of key social movements engaged in the daily fight against exploitation and oppression and for the socialist reorganization of society.
