having some audio issues

People can type questions and such in this chat box

I'd prefer not to unmute my audio unless I will be speaking. :)

Question, had a comrade relay to me earlier that the Bernie campaign released canvassing material, sticker prints, sign prints, etc. What are the rules on using/letting people bring those to events?

Glad to see the turnout yall!

Alex, he/him, East Bay DSA (N. Cali) Question: What are the guidelines/restrictions about “coordinating” with the official Bernie 2020? my understanding was we couldn’t list - say, a debate watch party- on the Bernie events page if it’s a DSA for Bernie event.

Will there be a San Diego BERNIE office?

In the Portland area out Our Rev affiliate is Bernie PDX. I worked with them in 2016 but I would like to know if in general OR groups are being folded into the official campaign more?

Lewis - La Crosse, WI

I was told we could put our event on the Bernie map if it wasn't billed as a DSA event...

After having run a M4A/independent bernie canvass, could we then upload that information separately into the Bern app?

The speaker said we should already have access to tools to help us track spending and other things, how do chapters get that? Somehow I missed it

Where does M4A work fit into this? SInce it one of Sander's key policy points, if we are out working on a m4a campaign are we able to coordinate with the Bernie campaign to promote our m4a work?

How can we rely on VAN when it requires Democratic Party approval to have it? Can they take it away? Or am I incorrect about that?

our VAN is completely separate from the democratic party

­What kind of computer tools do we need to use the DSA VAN?

none needed - it will just be a website and a smartphone app

so did the sound cut out for everyone or just me?

Will there be DSA VAN training?

Yes, VAN training will happen after the convention

We can have these slides after the call, yes? Thanks!

Ty Glenn for clearing that up for me.

yes! we will send the slides out after the call

PBR! Tampa Bay represent!

finishing my entire group of doors

Question: How do you handle people who show up for Bernie but aren't necessarily all that interested in DSA or socialism specifically? In my area, we're filling the entire "Bernie" space. Seems to be a challenge.

Question: when will chapters get DSA for Bernie supplies?

do we need to purchase these materials ourselves when organizing a canvassing event?

the leadership of every chapter received an email last week with a code to register for 1000 pieces of DSA for Bernie literature

As co-chair of our chapter, I can verify that we did not receive that email.

please email dsaforbernie@dsausa.org from the official chapter account to ask for your DSA for Bernie literature

Oh, apologies, I didn’t realize that “literature” referred to the palm cards. We did get that.

To Doug Johnson: This is a hard question we need to work with democrats and Union organizers, some of whom are not enthusistic. You have to build relations over years by supporting their issues. See "Going Public", Gecan

Are Bernie and Jane going to be at the convention///? ;-)

2 from me: 1) Is there a Bernie for DSA email list? 2) I really think Democratic Socialists for Bernie tshirts/buttons/bumper stickers would be great for canvassing and stuff!

I

DSA for Bernie tshirts/buttons/bumper stickers are coming soon!

I've been volunteering directly with the Bernie campaign and organizing phonebanking. I have not been using any DSA resources for this. Am I in the clear here or is this going to be a problem?

WAHOO to DSA for Bernie SWAG!!!

Would totally facilitate impromptu conversations and passive contact gathering!

OUR NEXT FOLLOW-UP CALL: Tues Aug 13th at 8:30p ET/5:30p PT to give feedback and ask questions after doing your first field event(s)

For compliance questions, please reach out to compliance@dsausa.org

For other campaign-related questions or feedback, email: dsaforbernie@dsausa.org

So I think I dropped off the call for a second — are we all filing FEC reports ourselves, or is National filing an aggregated FEC report?

what about coordinating with OR affiliates?

OR=Our Rev

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gipc6OjkD_jv4crDD4nDIK-UYjA2i8wIZdZD9QLIiF0/edit

is it if we are incorporated separately or if we have a separate 501c4 designation?

please email compliance@dsausa.org with your specific scenario
