Rally in Oakland Civic Center as part of the California Nurses Association protesting the National Labor Relations Board's expected decision to remove the ability of nurses to form and be represented by unions, by considering them supervisors instead of employees. Unlike employees, supervisors do not have protected rights under federal law to form and join unions.

Wouldn't you prefer to have content, respected, qualified, well-rested health-care providers the next time you go into the emergency room?

This is a question of workers rights, and by implication of the gender composition of the nursing profession, women's rights. Its a question of your health rights. Take Action here.
