The frontline healthcare workers of the Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions are excited to have reached a tentative agreement with Kaiser Permanente. We are thankful for the instrumental support of Acting US Labor Secretary Julie Su.
A full announcement will follow shortly.
Rehabilitation specialists at @UCDavisHealth marched on their boss this week to become the most recent UC group to speak up about the impact of short-staffing and burnout on patient care and the need for more equitable and fair workplaces #safestaffing#union
@Shelness Yes, but because the UC was created in 1868 as something like parallel to the state labor laws like the minimum wage laws don't apply. But ACA 6 would fix that.
At the 23-minute mark, @UCDavisHealth shows up to oppose the @seiu_uhw minimum wage for healthcare workers at the @TheCityofSac that doesn't even apply to them. This is some healthcare-bloated-do-nothing-admin class solidarity. https://t.co/qDMtOWIujy
Florida’s union families are mourning the passing of Mike Williams, President of the Florida AFL-CIO following a water accident on June 17th at his home in St. Marks Florida. Williams was one of the most transformative labor leaders in Florida history.
Hearing the very sad news about our friend Mike Williams. A true servant, someone who showed us how to stand up for what we believe in, and always reminded us of who BUILT America. My friend, RIP. We will take it from here!
A huge victory! We fought hard rallied with our community, went up against an $11 billion a year corporate health behemoth— and we WON. Because we stood united and we knew that we're on the right side fighting to build a more just & equitable society.

Shout out to those who couldn’t make it to Sacramento but are also rallying for $25 an hour right on their own turf like the CIR and @AFSCME members at UC Davis Hospital!
@matias_kaplan The coefficient of friction of banana peel on a linoleum surface was measured at just 0.07, about half that of lubricated metal on metal. Researchers attribute this to the crushing of the natural polysaccharide follicular gel, releasing a homogenous sol.

@arod_1833@afscme3299@LorenaSGonzalez 🤔 A union pushes to increase minimum wage to $25. Guy on internet says something about inflation. Apologies for assuming you were connecting the two.
@arod_1833@afscme3299@LorenaSGonzalez I know. People are always like "inflation is driven by minimum wage increases" without doing a simple google search.

Obscure union facts from obscure Wikipedia pages is my squeeze.
"When the union was started in the late 1800s, employe and employee were both valid spellings. The union has never changed the spelling out of respect for its past."

At today's UC Regents' meeting we called on the University to raise the minimum wage for ALL UC employees to $25 per hour or a 5% increase for those already making $25 per hour.
📣 We are demanding a fair, livable wage! 🚨
