Cecilia Lunaparra will be DSA's first elected member on Berkeley City Council! Thanks to the work of Cal YDSA, Cecilia's grassroots campaign in this student-majority district enabled her to win a major victory for working people in Berkeley!

Congratulations to Cecilia Lunaparra for an amazing win last week! As the first undergraduate student to serve on the city council, this openly queer history-maker is a force to be reckoned with.

This is the DSA (and YDSA) difference. To my knowledge, Cecilia Lunaparra is the first elected official in the country to sleep at a Gaza Solidarity Encampment. Elected less than two weeks ago and already using her platform to fight for justice.

Love to see candidates walking the talk even after the election. Keep getting it done, Cecilia Lunaparra! ✅ Supported Palestinian human rights as a candidate ✅ Elected to City Council two weeks ago ✅ Now camping at UC Berkeley in solidarity against the genocide in Palestine

Proud to support you, Councilmember ✊
