Nurses show up in our darkest moments. 9/11. The pandemic. Every illness and emergency. Their worth is not negotiable. Fair pay, safe conditions, dignity now. NYC stands with nurses and demands good faith bargaining for justice and care for all.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Today, 350 members of @1199SEIU delivered our rank-&-file petition to demand our newly-elected leaders rescind our union's endorsement of @andrewcuomo
Ahead of an aggressive pro-Cuomo GOTV effort by our union this weekend, we must make our voices heard.
MORE THAN 330 @1199SEIU NYC MEMBERS have signed our petition calling on our newly-elected union leaders to rescind 1199's endorsement of @andrewcuomo!
Please share our petition with 1199ers & healthcare workers in your life https://t.co/GWj670345X
And remember #DontRankCuomo!
Southern Poverty Law Center WORKERS do great work and deserve RESPECT.
The organization should be focused on its mission, not busting the union.
Weโll continue to stand with our @SPLCUnion members.
This morning, members of ACT UP NY went to Fire Islandโs Trailblazers Park, a place where Queer and Trans heroes are meant to be honored, and raised two flags: one for Cecilia Gentili, a heroic activist that we tragically lost in February, and another for Queer Palestinians.
Having company representatives walk around the shop floor trying to sway workers is another. If the mere effort to unionize has the bosses' zealous attention, imagine what workers could win by actually bargaining together as a union: https://t.co/RizeovfdQR 3/3
Scoop: The @UAW's @hgsuuaw grad student union has filed a US labor board case over Harvard's response to pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus, claiming the school's retaliation violated students' right as employees to protest over workplace issues
