You know Michael Lighty literally has no power in DSA lol for steering the direction of the org. No one in national does, no reason to to blame them for anything good or bad other except the necessary legal stuff for DSA to function, which they do a decent job at. At best they have soft power in that chapter leadership and membership will sometimes listen to their input. For DSA to support force the vote, even getting force the vote to be on the national political committee agenda that all chapters agree to would take weeks, and many in DSA think the whole thing is pointless and would rather if engaging with congressional politics at all, try and build momentum for the ACA fix fight and have everyone vote against Pelosi no matter what. Also for what its worth, imo Lighty is right on why DSA as an org has not done anything official and force the vote does not serve any strategic purpose for growing DSA right now. Force the vote has very little value to put resources into in the opinion of many DSA chapters compared to the ongoing campaigns. Disrupting the ongoing local campaigns and national ones for a new national one with a very short timescale on something as contentious as force the vote would likely not even pass onto the national political committee.
