Shortly after its foundation in 1977, the ISO began publishing a monthly titled Socialist Worker, modelled after the British publication of the same name and the biweekly Workers' Power, then published by the International Socialists. As its circulation increased along with the growth of the ISO, the frequency of publication has increased, becoming a weekly with issue 379, dated 12 October 2001. The 500th issue was published on 21 May 2004. The paper became a daily web site on May Day 2008.
Since 13 April 2001, the ISO has also published a Spanish language supplement to Socialist Worker, titled Obrero Socialista. Publication was irregular until 2005, since when it has been bimonthly. Socialist Worker is edited by Alan Maass, and Obrero Socialista by Orlando Sepulveda.

“Because of these convictions, I made a personal decision in the 1964 Presidential campaign to make education a fundamental issue and to put it high on the nation’s agenda.

—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The popular colleges of the United States are turning out more educated people with less originality and fewer geniuses than any other country.”
—Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
