Nurses see the dangers of unsafe staffing, rushed discharges, and complex care pushed onto families without training. Sign the petition to stop Home at Home proposal that threatens quality care! bit.ly/dontleavepatie…

Today, @32BJSEIU members are taking over Park Avenue. Thousands of residential workers are coming together to send a message: We are united. We are ready. And we’re fighting for the contract we deserve. #32BJStrong #WeMakeNYCHome

BREAKING: @32BJSEIU Members Authorize Strike of 34,000 NYC Residential Building Service Workers.

Thank you @nynurses for taking care of us! It’s time for NYS to take care of you and FIX TIER 6!

Kicked off Caucus Weekend at the Chairwoman’s Welcome Reception alongside colleagues, partners, and advocates committed to delivering for New Yorkers. Good to connect with @cherylwillsny1 and the NY1 team, stand with NYSNA @nynurses nurses as they continue their fight for fair contracts, and join fellow legislators and Governor Hochul @GovKathyHochul as we prepare for the work ahead.

Shout out to Mount Sinai Hospital nurses who were up this morning and feeling the love as they headed back to work. ❤️

Congratulations to the more than 10,000 @nynurses who spent weeks on the picket line fighting to win a fair deal that protects patients, respects nurses, and strengthens care across our city.

When working people organize, they win.

Last night, my amendment to repeal ICE’s $75 billion funding increase and reverse cuts to Medicaid won the support of every Senate Democrat — and two Republicans. That didn’t happen by accident. It happens when people organize and demand change. The struggle continues.

Today we mourned a healthcare worker who dedicated his life to taking care of others and preserving life. 💔 Proud to stand even in the cold w/ @1199seiu @nynurses @nycdsa and immigrant defense organizations like @thenyic to demand the immediate abolition of ICE.

Our members were out again showing support for striking @nynurses Tuesday – this time it was our @Law360Union. Cold weather won’t stop our solidarity for these workers! Here’s how you can support these workers, who deserve a fair contract……nysna.org/news/take-acti…

Good morning, especially to the strong and brave members of @nynurses who are still on the picket line fighting for the strong contract they and their patients deserve. And good morning to @nyumeyers students and faculty who joined them this week.

@DC37nyc Executive Director Henry Garrido says “City workers are with you, NYers are with you & the world is with you. You care for us, and we care for you!”

@1199SEIU officers are in the house and in full solidarity with striking NYC nurses! “This strike is about patient care!”

John Santos from @ 32bjseiu says, “The bosses need to stop dragging their feet and settle fair contracts now! New York is a union town!”

Sheila, an NYP nurse of 40+ years, says it’s shameful how hospital execs pushed nurses to strike and are keeping us out here.

@PSC_CUNY Pres James Davis says this strike is a struggle for what kind of city we want to be. One day longer, one day stronger!

@UAWRegion9A Pres Brandon Mancilla says we are with you in your fight for justice and against corporate greed and to protect all of us—your patients. “You can’t put patients first if you put your nurses last!” #SolidarityForever

Shout out to @CWADistrict1 @local1101cwa and ALL the CWA members who have walked the picket line in solidarity with nurses!

@CentralLaborNYC Pres Brendan Griffith says, “The 1 million union members of NYC are with the nurses…These hospitals have the money to do better, but lack the will to protect patients and nurses.”

@twulocal100 were also out in the cold on strike. “The union is everything—stick together—we’re behind you!”
