Dear SEIU 121RN Steward,
Special Message for New StewardsWelcome and thank you for taking the lead at your worksite! You just made our Union stronger! Union strength starts at our worksites and as a Steward, you are the foundation of a solid, effective union. You inspire other members to stand strong and united for good union jobs and good hospitals that provide safe patient care. Thank you for your dedication to your patients, your colleagues and your Union! |
SB 1288 ALERT: I have some great news! Our "Stop Repeat Offender Hospitals" bill is sitting on Governor Brown's desk. Can you help us encourage the RNs at your hospital to call the Governor today?
Click here for a flyer version of this information that you can post to your Union bulletin board at work and kill two birds with one stone:
- Mobilize your co-workers to call Jerry Brown!
- ...and show hospital administrators that we mean business when it comes to protecting our patients and our licenses!
And it's important to remember that to get good nursing legislation, we must elect "Healthcare Heroes"—elected leaders who work with us to sponsor and support good laws that protect RNs and our patients! Click »»» here (and encourage other RNs) to talk to voters leading up to the November mid-term elections.
Encourage your co-workers to apply for an SEIU Local 121RN scholarship: Members can apply »»» here and you can download a flyer from our »»» online Purple Comms folder
