Local Chapters not sending me their emails

I'd been a member of national DSA since 2008, but around 2015 I let my membership lapse a few years until 2019.   Since then I have had automatic payments ever since at $60/year (and they keep asking for more, of course).

Nevertheless, the local chapter San Antonio DSA has only very intermittently had my email on their email list.  When I re-upped my membership in 2019, I got a few emails that year.  Then they opened a Slack, and I got that, and then no more emails

I've asked at several local meetings, even writing my email down.  Nothing happened.

I got an email on October 2024 asking if I'd like to be put "back" on the email list.  I quickly responded yes, adding that I had never asked for my email to be taken off the list.  They immediately replied that I was on the list.  That was the last email I received before the next meeting I attended (because a friend told me about it) in February 2025.

At that meeting they said that members would be receiving an email for the DSA local chapter election, and if we didn't get that email we should let them known.  I searched for existing emails from DSA only to re-affirm they'd sent me nothing since October, when they told me they were putting me back on the list.

So I sent them another message that I'd like to be on the list.

I'm not holding my breath.

I've had similar luck with JVP.  I pay them automatically every year, and the local chapter stopped sending me emails in 2022.

Both of these organizations seem pretty well organized to me, with hundreds of members, local boards with all positions filled including at-large members.  They do multiple activities every month.  I know how hard that is.

But why no emails?
