The nation's largest nurses union endorses progressive champion Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for New York's 14th because @AOC:
💪 Fights to protect nurses and patients,
🤝 Supports unions and working families, and
🏥 Champions health care for all!
☣️ Donald Trump is hazardous to our health! ☣️
Union nurses are keenly aware of the threats a second Trump term would pose to the health and safety of our patients, our communities, and ourselves.
Just a few of the reasons we're working to defeat him in November: 🧵 ⤵️ (1/9)
Nurses were proud to stand with the National Labor Network for Ceasefire today in Washington D.C., to call for an immediate ceasefire in the war in Gaza, and an end to U.S. military aid to Israel.
Congratulations to the Essentia East Market Advanced Practice Providers on voting to unionize with @mnnurses! Together, we stand stronger for safe patient care. Proud to stand with you in #solidarity.
President @JoeBiden has tirelessly improved the lives of working people, embraced nurses’ values, and protected workers’ health and safety. NNU nurses thank him and are committed to protecting democracy and ensuring Trump does not win a second term. https://t.co/7QEhSj74gv
Thank you @RepRashida for listening to NNU and @minurses nurse stories today about the national nurse staffing crisis and how unregulated A.I. is negatively impacting our patients.
We're grateful to have an ally like you in Congress fighting for nurse values!
I am proud to co-author AB 2200 authored by Assemblymember Kalra, creating CalCare, guaranteeing healthcare for all across California. Health care is a human right and I stand with @Ash_Kalra as he presents this bill to the Assembly Health Committee today #Caleg#CalCare
Our latest Registered Nurse Response Network deployment is off to Guatemala, where the majority of the population receives little to no regular care.
We're ready to provide the critical holistic human care that nurses know best.

Even after a $10 million interest-free loan, and millions more in their coffers, Hazel Hawkins is pursuing bankruptcy. Putting the only acute-care hospital in San Benito County at risk!
The stakes are too high. RNs will keep fighting until Hazel Hawkins remains full-service!
