Far too many of our nurses have stories like this one, where they’ve faced violence on the job just for trying to care for their patients. No one should fear for their safety at work, and we must fight for safe workplaces free from violence. @OhioStateRN @AFTHealthcare #CodeRed 10tv.com/article/news/l…

Powerful scene in Chicago as @AFTunion nurses, healthcare professionals & union members join immigrant communities in peaceful protest. When our communities, patients & families are under attack, we stand up & fight back. 💪🏽 @AFTHealthcare #ProtectOurKids

El pueblo unido jamás será vencido! @AFTunion

When hospitals refuse to staff safely, that puts everyone in danger. Proper staffing ratios provide better healthcare for our patients & a safe environment for all staff. ~@RickOsuno @OhioNursesAssoc @AFTunion #RealSolutions #ProtectOurHeathcareProfessionals #ProtectOurPatients

The right to strike is fundamental to American labor law... Workers are not indentured servants, bound to continue laboring until any planned work stoppage would be as painless as possible for their master. - Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson 👸🏾

Healthcare workers are exhausted and quitting in droves. Facilities are dangerously understaffed. This staffing crisis can be addressed with a series of key interventions outlined in our report. Listen to our members speak out on the challenges they face. youtu.be/xPTmKXC4aYc

New video: Call it what it is — a betrayal. Ohioans were dying, and JD Vance said he was coming to help. But his main focus was helping JD Vance. Let’s not give him another chance to betray Ohioans.

Today, the state of Florida gains a candidate for lieutenant governor whose passion for and dedication to children, families and communities are unmatched. @CharlieCrist @KarlaforFlorida aft.org/press-release/…
