🚨 BREAKING: SECURE HOSPITALS FOR ALL! Governor Newsom signs #SecureHospitalsforAll bill, #AB2975!
The new law marks a huge step forward in our goal of making California hospitals safe places where patients can heal.
Signed, sealed, delivered! @CAgovernor has signed my first state law - SB 81. This law protects the privacy and dignity of all Californians, regardless of immigration status, and ensures they can seek healthcare free from fear or intimidation. https://t.co/9g4qe03r5F
Health care workers want better guidance on handling ICE encounters. New law by #CaLeg#SB81@CASenateDems@JesseArreguin aims to help. Monique Hernandez with @SEIU@SEIU121RN says “Real change happens with policy…when you put ideas pen to paper.” https://t.co/zy8CHmrcOp
The Pitt won Outstanding Drama Series at the #Emmys, and R. Scott Gemmill dedicated the award to healthcare workers:
"Respect them. Protect them. Trust them.”

Liza & her coworkers at Anaheim Regional Medical Center are excited to bargain their first union contract! After a massive majority vote to unionize, nurses look forward to fixing major retention problems & improving patient care at their hospital. #safestaffingsaveslives
Congressional leaders & this new Administration MUST listen to our demand for #UnionsForAll! Regardless of the election results, we’re still demanding an economy and society that works for working people, no matter where we’re from, what we look like, or what we do for a living.
I stand in solidarity with @seiu121rn members in their quest for patient safety.
The nurses at Northridge Hospital Medical Center are on the frontline of our healthcare system and deserve support - not more cuts - so they can take care of their patients. #safestaffing
The Oxnard City Council will vote Tuesday on a resolution that urges St. John's Regional Medical Center to stop outsourcing jobs. https://t.co/0hIhhjnJH6
We applaud @CAGovernor for signing #AB2975 into law. @AsmMikeGipson’s #SecureHospitalsForAll Act will bolster security in CA hospitals by requiring the installation of weapon detection systems at key points. https://t.co/piIWg2ATqg
This common-sense safety measure saw rare bi-partisan support in the legislature, and we commend California lawmakers for taking a stand for safety in all of our state's hospitals. Millions of people who work at or seek care in hospitals will now be more safe.
🚨 BREAKING: SECURE HOSPITALS FOR ALL! Governor Newsom signs #SecureHospitalsforAll bill, #AB2975!
The new law marks a huge step forward in our goal of making California hospitals safe places where patients can heal.
The bill also requires that searches of patients' belongings may not be carried out by #Nurses or other healthcare workers. Instead, trained personnel must be assigned to screening. This provision allows healthcare workers to focus on providing compassionate care, not policing.

#AB2975 (Gipson) was passed by
the CA Senate yesterday with no opposition votes.
Too often, healthcare workers are forced to
encounter weapons as they carry out life-saving
work. We urge Governor Newsom to sign this
lifesaving bill into law.
