NC report: Building the YCL in the fight for democracy and peace
The following report was given on behalf of the Young Communist League to the Feb. 2 meeting of the CPUSA National Committee.

YCL in 2024: Fighting fascism at home and abroad
In 2024, the Young Communist League took to the streets, phone lines, and doorsteps to demand justice and democracy both at home and abroad. From solidarity actions in support of Palestinians in Gaza to study groups on foundational topics in Marxism and engaging in a mass collective effort to build the unity of the anti-fascist, anti-MAGA majority, the YCL’s commitment to anti-imperialist and anti-fascist struggle has never been clearer.

This year’s turnout was closer to the levels of the 2016 election. The decrease underscores a missed opportunity to energize young voters, who had previously played a decisive role in defeating Donald Trump’s far-right MAGA agenda.

Injuries mount, answers missing: Knee injuries increase for young athletes
Alexis Garcia made a routine move, attempting to pass the soccer ball to a teammate. Suddenly, her right knee locked. It twisted awkwardly. She heard a “crunch” as she crumbled to the soccer field. The pain, she said, was excruciating. Then the tears came. Not from the physical agony, but a feeling of dejection waft over the New Paltz High School senior. She knew what her injury likely was, and what it meant for her soccer career. Garcia, 17, had suffered a torn ACL in her right knee.
