## Key points

- NYC’s DSA chapter will consider urging AOC to run in 2028.
- The proposal says a campaign could bring in new members.
- Any formal endorsement would require a separate decision.

## Summary

New York City’s Democratic Socialists of America chapter will consider a resolution urging Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to run for president in 2028. The proposal argues that a campaign could advance the group’s democratic socialist agenda and attract new members, but passing it would not amount to an official endorsement.

The resolution, signed by chapter co-chairs Gustavo Gordillo and Grace Mausser, is due for a vote at Saturday’s convention. It also recommends a vote of all national DSA members on whether to endorse Ocasio-Cortez and calls for coordination among chapters. Other DSA chapters, including those in Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington’s Metro District and Atlanta, have passed similar “Run, AOC, Run” resolutions. Ocasio-Cortez has also been weighing a possible presidential run or a Senate primary challenge in New York.
