As democratic socialists, we believe that working people should run both the economy and society democratically to meet human needs, not to make profits for a few. We are the Binghamton University chapter of the Young Democratic Socialists of America. On campus, we fight to make our university a place where students and workers can thrive — where our university works for us, not unelected administrators.
Meet Binghamton YDSA
The largest political organization at Binghamton University. Fighting for the working class on campus and in our workplaces.

Join us at our upcoming events, and organize with us to fight for a better world. We hold weekly general body meetings during the semester, in addition to social events, political education, and other organizing-related meetings.
Join us to canvass for petition signatures for our campaign, Solidarity Melts ICE. Don't worry if this is your first time canvassing; we will start every shift with canvassing training! Our campaign goals are as follows:Â
Ends its contract with Flock Safety and the use of ALPRs in totality
Utilizes the B-Alert system to notify all students, faculty, staff, and other campus workers of suspected immigration enforcement on campus
Improves its protections of student workers from ICE by providing comprehensive safety plans for undergraduate student workers — explicitly in the event that ICE or federal officers of any kind are on campus calls; providing leave time for student workers who are attending immigration hearings, meetings, or any other necessary leave relating to immigration; refusing ICE from entering work sites or accessing employee records without a judicial warrant or subpoena; sharing with workers what employment information they give to the federal government; and consistently updating and discussing with student workers changes in immigration policy and its impacts on student workers.
Come join the Binghamton University YDSA's Communications Committee for its first meeting of the semester! We we will discuss a new reel to advertise/ educate the student body on Binghamton YDSA and socialism, new methods of media creation, what being a part of the Communications Committee entails, and more! This meeting is open to everyone, but it is recommended for only existing Bing YDSA members to attend. See you there!
