The Socialist Party has now expanded the “Locals” page of the SPMI website to additionally include a list of officially designated local/regional organizing committees and contacts for various sections of the state. While seeking to facilitate greater coordination and communication among SPMI members living in areas in which no SPMI local is presently chartered, the primary goal of this new list is to facilitate the development of new locals in each of the areas where contacts are regional organizing committees are presently listed.
In addition to the SPMI’s presently chartered Detroit Socialist Party local, whose jurisdiction encompasses the three Metro Detroit counties of Wayne, Macomb, and Oakland, the SPMI’s new “Local Branches & Contacts” page presently includes contact information for local organizing committees and volunteer local coordinating contacts for the state’s, as well as the greater Ingham, Monroe, and Washtenaw County areas, as well as the state’s southwest Michigan and western upper peninsula regions. We are also currently in contact with SPMI members residing in the state’s Flint/Tri-Cities, Eastern Upper Peninsula, Northern Lower Peninsula, and Thumb regions, with the corresponding aim of establishing and listing local organizing committees and contacts for each of those regions very soon. The SPMI ‘Chartered Locals & Regional Contacts’ page can be found under the “About Us” heading within the SPMI website’s left-hand sidebar, or by clicking here
