California Nurses Association

The choice for governor is clear. @TomSteyer is committed to: ✅ Passing #CalCare, ✅ Abolishing ICE, and ✅ Rejecting money from health care corporations and the oil and gas industry. Union nurses are for Tom!

Nurses have been fighting for single-payer healthcare for decades. I'm running for governor to deliver it. Nurses are the backbone of our healthcare system, and they have been overlooked for too long. I'm so proud to have their endorsement, and I will fight for them as governor.

Our right to protest & organize collectively is inextricably tied to our democratic right to vote. Nurses won't stand for this attack on the Voting Rights Act. It's more important than ever that we step up our fight to protect working peoples' voices! ✊ nationalnursesunited.org/press/we-need-…

When you can't afford your meds, we find a cheaper option. When you're scared, we hold your hand. When managers understaff our unit, we speak up. We are your advocates, we are nurses. ❤️✊ Happy Nurses Week to all the fierce patient advocates protecting our communities!

Time and time again, @TomSteyer has shown that he will stand up and fight to change the status quo — and build a California that works for everyone. Nurses are proud to fight for a better future with him!

"California can't afford to continue with this broken system. Single-payer #CalCare is a change — it is saying this is not right. We are going to fight for justice for the people of this state. And we are going to win!" - @TomSteyer

This is the kind of governor California needs! 👏 “Californians can’t afford to live here anymore. They deserve better — someone who who is going to put his or her soul into the fight for working people and that is exactly what I am going to do!” - @TomSteyer

Under Trump, ICE has been attacking our communities, disappearing our neighbors and patients, and murdering people, including one of our own, nurse Alex Pretti.   @TomSteyer understands that ICE can't be reformed and must be abolished. He is the candidate for abolishing ICE!

Nurses are for @TomSteyer because he understands that billionaires — yes, like himself — and corporations need to be forced to pay their fair share. He may seem like an unlikely ally in the class war, but we know that the fighters we need don’t always come from where we expect.

RNs are sick of Sacramento cowering away from the bold steps we need to make #CalCare a reality. We need a governor who won’t cave to the health care industry’s lobby. That person is @TomSteyer. Nurses trust him because he believes what we believe: Health care is a human right!

Nurses are done with politicians whose allegiance is to corporate health care donors, not the working people who voted for them. @TomSteyer's allegiance is with patients and workers, NOT greedy corporations! That's why nurses are fighting for him to be our next governor!

We're less than a month away from the June primary — and nurses are gearing up to make sure @TomSteyer is our next governor of California! He is the only candidate who consistently stands with us on our values, and we're proud to fight for a better future with him.

The primary election for governor is in less than a month, and CNA nurses are all in for @TomSteyer — the only viable candidate prioritizing #CalCare. We’re hosting a call this Thursday to activate supporters and turn out voters. Will you join us? zoom.us/webinar/regist…

UCLA nurses will rally outside the Board of Regents meeting this week to protest use of tents and hallway beds in the emergency department. We are demanding working conditions that are safe and will allow patients to receive the highest standard of care! nationalnursesunited.org/press/ucla-nur…

May Day is an internationally recognized day of resistance to corporate greed — dating back to the 1886 fight to win the 8-hour workday in Chicago. @NationalNurses proudly took part to continue that legacy and demonstrate the power of working people. ✊🏽

On #MayDay, thousands of us showed what it looks like when workers stand together — nurses, students, and communities refusing to accept business as usual. We marched for our patients, for each other, and for a future that puts people first. And our fight is just beginning.

✊🏽 Health care, not warfare! ✊🏽 We won't sit by while the rich get richer from our labor and profit off the destruction of our communities. The message for the billionaire class this May Day is clear: Working people have had enough!

Power concedes nothing without a demand — and we’re making our demand loud!📢 Nurses see the cost of corporate greed every day, and we’re NOT staying quiet. With solidarity, creative disruption, and collective action, we’re fighting for a future that puts #PatientsOverProfit.

Thousands of us are in the streets of SF right now—workers, nurses, students—rising together for #MayDay. No shopping, no school, real disruption. We’re showing what working people’s power looks like when we stand up to greed, defend our patients, and demand a healthy future.

Union nurses held a press conference today outside Bakersfield Memorial Hospital to demand hospital leadership reverse plans to close the hospital’s burn unit. This lifesaving specialized care for the Central Valley must be preserved!
