We proudly joined in solidarity today as they prepare to strike, demanding a fair contract, healthcare, safe staffing, better conditions for nurses & patients - including barring ICE from hospitals!

Nurses are at the forefront of the fight to & to guarantee healthcare as a human right & we have their backs just like they have ours! When we pass the NY Health Act no one will have to negotiate for healthcare ever again or have it pitted against wages on the bargaining table or risk it being withheld when on strike, giving unions maximal leverage to win better pay & protections.

Rank & file organizing for the NY Health Act is vital across all sectors - get involved !

Make a plan to support nurses as they prepare to strike & find picket line locations at NYSNA.org

Speakers above include RN Michelle Gonzalez & Pat Kane Executive Director of NYSNA

New York can provide TRULY AFFORDABLE healthcare that is free at the point of care, eliminates all premiums, deductibles, copays, coinsurance, balance billing and medical debt at the source - and COVERS ALL NEEDED CARE including preventive, emergency, mental, dental, vision, hearing, gender-affirming, reproductive, and Long Term Care for every New Yorker, without exception, including undocumented immigrants.

Today we joined to launch their Care Not Corruption campaign, calling for the elimination of private insurance middlemen in home care and reinvesting the money now wasted on their corporate profits into home care wages & care, fair pay for home care workers, ending the PPL monopoly & restoring CDPAP & making the rich pay their fair share.
As we build towards passing the NY Health Act to provide fully comprehensive, publicly funded, universal healthcare - including Long Term Care - for all New Yorkers, we urge Gov Hochul & the NY legislature to pass each of these bills to provide immediate relief for disabled people, home care workers, seniors and caregivers.
