AFT is always seeking ways to address the moral injury and burnout facing our healthcare members. Thank you for your leadership @timkaine. As a recipient of one of these grants, we know the importance of this law.

“This law will set a standard for all hospitals across our state and will ensure our ohana will receive quality care and ensure all of Hawaii’s valued nurses are treated fairly and equitably.” @AFTHealthcare https://t.co/Q6uS4AFa8o

Diseases and viruses know no borders. By being part of the WHO, the United States could get information about public health threat in other countries that could harm Americans — like Ebola outbreaks — and take action to make sure that we are prepared to respond.

New from @rweingarten: "Slashing essential programs for Americans with the greatest needs to pay for tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires would be a monumental betrayal of the people who voted for Trump ..." Read her latest NYT column: https://t.co/YRxvzCXICS

We're part of this new lawsuit because DOGE must come out of the shadows & comply with the law before the sweeping, self-serving plans of billionaires upend the federal government and cause irreparable damage in the lives of working people. https://t.co/td5mRdh1pm

A broken system hurts every patient & every family.

In Oregon, physicians, RNs, & others are on strike to demand Providence address unsafe staffing levels in emergency rooms & unfair wages. Add your name & tell Providence to put #PatientsBeforeProfits.

“As the only O.B. hospitalist on call on the floor...I cannot safely take care of another patient,” Dr. Megan Locher said. “You need to allow me to provide the continued quality care to the patients that I’m at the bedside with or we need another person.” https://t.co/yTgImWdHx1

[Dan Montgomery @DanJMontgomery]
