Darializa Avila Chevalier for Congress in NY-13
The working people in Harlem and the Bronx deserve bold, unapologetic leadership.
That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Darializa Avila Chevalier for Congress in New York’s 13th District.
Darializa isn’t a career politician — she’s a movement organizer.
A working-class Afro-Latina, member of the United Auto Workers, and public defense investigator in Harlem, Darializa is grounded in grassroots organizing and committed to taking on corporate power.
From organizing against ICE to supporting working-class New Yorkers through mutual aid, her work has always centered on dignity, justice, and solidarity. She’s running on a bold, people-first agenda that includes:
- Housing for all and major investments in public housing
- Economic justice and support for working families
- Immigrant rights and an end to inhumane detention and deportation policies
- Ending endless war and redirecting resources toward communities at home
- Greater worker ownership and community investment
Darializa has also been a leading voice in the movement for Palestinian human rights, connecting the fight against militarism abroad with the fight for justice and investment at home.
In NY-13, Darializa is challenging a long-entrenched incumbent backed by powerful special interests — including real estate and corporate-aligned donors.
This race is about more than one seat. It’s about whether the Democratic Party will continue to be shaped by insiders and big money — or by grassroots movements fighting for working people.
Darializa is part of a growing wave of insurgent, people-powered candidates stepping up to challenge the status quo — just like we saw with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in this very region.
When we organize, we win!
