GSUS Los Angeles

General Strike Los Angeles is a local chapter of General Strike US (GSUS). We are part of a grassroots, decentralized network of regular people who know our greatest power is our labor and our right to refuse it. We are organizing anyone in LA County who wants to join the cause. This strike fund will be used to prepare for, and sustain a general strike in LA, including supporting strikers while they refuse work. In order to request or receive payment of any kind, you must create an Open Collective account.

GSUS is organizing 3.5% of the entire U.S. population (about eleven million people) toward a general strike. We invite every person and organization fighting for real change to join us. Find your local chapter, sign your strike card, and join the movement!

How will the money be spent?
Short Term Goals:

In the event that a general strike in LA does not take place, after a vote by the GSUS LA Strike Fund Committee, any remaining funds will be redistributed to other mutual aid groups within LA County. Rest assured that your contribution will go toward supporting our local community, no matter what. For any questions regarding refunds, donations, or payments of any kind, please email us at [email protected].

Fundraising Best Practices
All fundraising for our chapter must link to either this Open Collective account or our Bonfire store. Anyone claiming to raise money for our chapter using any other website is not legitimate. Our chapter does not accept cash donations. Always exercise caution when giving money to any organization.
