All across the state, from San Diego to Salinas to Sacramento, #CalCare canvasses were out in force this weekend!
Did you know supporters have organized over 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ canvasses this year for CalCare?! We're getting ready for January 2024!
We know hospitals have the resources to safely staff our units, they're just choosing not to. Why? Because it's more profitable.
It's shameful and we're not standing for it. All across California, nurses are taking action to demand our employers staff up for safe patient care!
Union RNs know the majority of people in the U.S. want #MedicareForAll! Everybody in, nobody out. Everybody, regardless of race, sex, gender, country of origin, disability status, immigration status, age, and income, gets the care they need!
Thank you, @SenSanders for fighting alongside nurses to win guaranteed health care. A better system is possible — with a single payer, improved and expanded #MedicareForAll!

Nurses know what's to blame for an uptick in respiratory illnesses: Total abandonment of public health measures.
Masking, social distancing, vaccination, testing, contract tracing, staying home when sick, & paid sick leave will help keep everyone safe.

Board member Aretha Morgan, RN of NYP joins Montefiore nurses and highlights that the issues we face are across systems and sectors. “Hospitals like NYP and Montefiore say they’re not-for-profit, but the only not-profiting are the nurses while CEOs earn millions.”
While nurses are still outraged by #SCOTUS' decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, we are hopeful that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will be a strong ally who will fight for #ReproductiveJustice and workers' rights.
Congratulations on this historic moment, Justice Jackson.
For 10 months, nurses and health care workers across NorCal have been fighting @SutterHealth for the #SafeStaffing and health and safety protections to keep us all safe.
CPMC nurses join together in a day of action at 1️⃣5️⃣ Sutter facilities to say — enough is enough! #RNStrike
While the Senate played political games, working people struggled for years. It is now time for our senators to do their jobs.
Pass the #BuildingaBetterAmerica plan and help America’s working families.

Public health experts are bracing for a potential new surge arising from the BA.2 subvariant, waning immunity, and almost complete abandonment of public health infection control protections.
@OSHA_DOL must #ProtectNurses and other health care workers!

There’s not a nurse shortage. There’s a hostile, painful environment for nurses who are understaffed, overworked, under paid, and unable to recover or do their jobs. This is the result of a for-profit “healthcare” industry. @NationalNurses@MassNurses#M4A

NNU is proud to endorse Rep. @IlhanMN for re-election to Congress.
Time and again, she's stood with nurses and patients and has embodied nurses' values of caring, compassion and community. Minnesota's 5th District needs her continued progressive leadership in the U.S. House!
For decades, nurses have led the fight for guaranteed health care for all.
Last year @CVSHealth donated $5 million to block real health care reform with #MedicareForAll. It’s past time CVS stop bankrolling these efforts and put #PeopleOverProfits.🧵⤵️ (1/9)
Big win for @AlhambraCenter RNs!
After a six-month fight, nurses won a contract addressing #SafeStaffing, RN retention and recruitment, infectious disease protocols, PPE, #WorkplaceViolencePrevention, meal/break relief, and more!✊✊✊ https://t.co/wbNB8OOezO
Registered Nurses at Prime Healthcare’s @WestAnaheimMed are taking to the streets Monday to call out the employer’s chronic failures to provide #SafeStaffing and enough beds for patients. Enough is enough! https://t.co/0fDAoLQJvt
