The billionaires are LYING. Prop 42 does NOT protect our pension or retirement savings. It's a billionaire-funded trick to try to prevent them from having to pay their fair share. DON'T FALL FOR THE BILLIONAIRE LIES, VOTE NO ON PROP 42!

California, vote by Nov 3! We need someone in Congress who will fight the health care insurance industry and Big Pharma. Vote Randy Villegas for Congress. 🗳️

We can't make this stuff up. As if we needed more proof that nurses' judgment is better than Prime CEO Prem Reddy's. Our communities deserve better.

Clinical judgment cannot be automated! Nurses fought for AB 1979 and California listened. We just set the national standard for protecting nurses’ clinical judgment from A.I. replacement. Now let's take this fight to every state! nationalnursesunited.org/pre…

Don't fall for the utopian view of A.I. being sold: The A.I. tech health care employers are rolling out in our workplaces is untested, unproven, unregulated,  and ultimately benefits their profit margin — not patients or nurses. thehill.com/opinion/healthca…

📢 If nurses are outside, something is WRONG inside! 📢 Nurses at Carondelet St. Mary’s and St. Joseph’s hospitals picketed this week to demand management address staffing and patient care issues.

History made in Baltimore! Nurses at @Ascensionorg Saint Agnes just won the first union contract for private-sector nurses in the city! This is what solidarity looks like. ✊ 🎉

NNU is proud to endorse @Justinjpearson for Congress! Tennessee deserves a voice in Congress that will stand with workers, NOT tech billionaires and corporations. Nurses are ready to elect Justin to Congress!

Six Nobel Prize-winning economists support California’s billionaire tax. Here’s why. 10 years ago, the richest 0.001% of Californians were worth $700 billion. Today, these 250 people are worth $2.3 trillion. The California income tax they paid over that period was just 1.6% of that gain. A nurse or a plumber pays a higher state tax rate.

Nearly all D.C. residents who die during pregnancy or childbirth are Black. Now, MedStar has eliminated 1/3 of postpartum beds at D.C.'s busiest birthing hospital & RNs are being pressured to discharge moms faster to make room. Join our community forum ➡️ nationalnursesunited.org/pre…

Billionaires and millionaires did not give us the right to organize, the 8‑hour work day, a 40‑hour work week, child labor laws, or a minimum wage. Workers did that! This Labor Day, we honor the victories that built our country and the fights that are still being waged. ✊

With escalating attacks on immigrants, on our union rights, and on our democracy, working people are drawing a line. Nurses are taking the Red Line Pledge. What's your red line?

On Thursday, nurses are mobilizing in eight cities to demand an end to Palantir's grip on our hospitals and our communities. Nurses know: Palantir's untested and unregulated technology has no place in patient care and no place in our streets! bit.ly/4hTB0Jx

Nurses are already being asked to do more and more with fewer resources so that executives can keep their bonuses. The nurses at Glendale Memorial Hospital are demanding @commonspirit management put patients before profits and rescind the layoffs or critical support staff!

At a time when the billionaire class has never ever had it so good, a new poll finds that 67% of Americans believe the wealthy are not paying their fair share of taxes. And they’re right. Congress: Listen to the American people. Tax billionaire wealth.

58% of Community First Medical Center's funding comes from Medicare and Medicaid. Now federal cuts could decimate it. Chicago nurses and community members showed up to sound the alarm and protect our hospital! 🚨

.@NurseBeBrave's video exposed hospitals' attempts to force nurses to compete for shifts like they're in an auction. Technology like this devalues our labor. Don't let them pit us against each other. Organize! nationalnursesunited.org/org…
