Representing over 500,000 home care, skilled nursing facility, & assisted living center workers in CA, SEIU 2015 is the largest #LongTermCare local in the US✊
Corporations spend $1.5 billion every year trying to stop workers from unionizing.
They’re not spending on better wages, better care, but on silencing the people doing the work.
That's not a business strategy, but rather stoking fear.
When workers stand together, they win - let's stand up against corporations. ✊
California's budget deadline is June 15.
The decisions being made right now will impact caregivers, older adults, people with disabilities, and families across our state.
We're raising our voices today because care is essential, and our communities cannot afford cuts.
Call your lawmakers TODAY and tell them to protect care funding.

#PrideMonth is more than a celebration, it’s a movement! 🌈 Our LGBTQIA+ siblings have always helped lead the fight for justice on the job and in our communities. Let’s honor the trailblazers who paved the way and support the workers who are carrying the fight forward today. 💖
🎉Victory in Del Norte! The county’s 400 IHSS providers have officially won raises totaling $1.75 an hour over the next three years, bringing wages above $20 an hour by 2028. Bargaining team member Barbara Moran shared the news on ABC 7 after county officials approved the new contract.
Congratulations to our Del Norte providers: when we fight, we win!
CALL TODAY: Tell Congress that working families are fed up. We’re paying more for healthcare, groceries and gas. It’s time to fund investments in our communities, not cruelty. Call 800-719-0332 and tell your representative to "VOTE NO" on Reconciliation. No more funding for ICE cruelty!
Just recently, nursing home members from SEIU 2015 took our fight directly to legislators, demanding action to reinstate the Workforce and Quality Incentive Program (WQIP). WQIP supports quality nursing home care by investing in the dedicated workers who make that care possible.
Nursing home workers won’t stop fighting until we win the investment, respect, and resources we deserve. WQIP NOW! #ReinstateWQIP #SEIU2015 #UnionStrong
