Joining Solidarity is fairly simple. First of all, any one who meets the following four criteria is eligible to be a member of Solidarity:
- General agreement with Solidarity’s politics as summarized in the Basis of Political Agreement at the back of the Founding Statement
- Commitment to building social and/or labor movement activism
- Commitment to building a socialist organization as a means to renewing a socialist alternative in the U.S.
- A commitment to a monthly dues. Dues are on a sliding scale based on what each person can afford, but general guidelines are: $40/month regular, $20/month low income, $5/month hardship rate. Note: some branches, like Detroit, also have a monthly local dues. Detroit’s is $5/mo. (Membership is activated upon receipt of your first month’s dues.)
