Union nurses at @SLUHospital in St. Louis rally for safe staffing and workplace safety. After last month’s tragic incident in the emergency department, RNs are demanding SLUH immediately overhaul its priorities so nurses can provide care without facing violence.

NNU wouldn't exist without Linda Hamilton. A fierce RN and union visionary, Linda helped found our union. She led with courage and fought for Medicare for All until the very end. We honor her legacy in 2025 and always. https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/article/visionary-leader

In just the past month, #MedicareForAll has gained 7 new cosponsors, bringing us to 17 in the Senate and 111 in the House. More members of Congress are joining us to recognize that the only solution to our health care crisis is Medicare for All. Our movement is growing!

Texas nurses at CommonSpirit's St. Joseph Health WON our union election! The nurses united will never be defeated! Welcome to our union family. 💪

Nurses demand Congress act NOW to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits. If these expire, millions of families could see premiums double or triple — and one in four ACA enrollees may lose coverage. https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nurses-demand-congress-act-to-extend-aca-tax-credits

A dystopian future isn't inevitable. Union nurses are organizing to make sure A.I. doesn't undermine patient safety. https://www.goodgoodgood.co/articles/ai-regulation-good-news

🚨 BIG WIN FOR WORKERS 🚨 Union RNs applaud the House for passing the Protect America’s Workforce Act! 2️⃣3️⃣1️⃣ members stood up to restore collective bargaining rights for VA nurses and federal workers. Thank you Rep. Mark Takano and Rep. Valerie Foushee for supporting nurses and veterans.

Voting against ACA subsidy extensions is a slap in the face and will create needless suffering for millions of people. Congressional Republicans, led by Trump, continue to prove how disconnected they are from the crisis facing working class people. 😡 https://bit.ly/4oShoFr

The mighty nurses at CommonSpirit St. Joseph Health College Station Hospital just won our union election! 🎉 Give it up for the newest members of NNU. Don’t mess with Texas nurses! https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/rns-at-st-joseph-hospital-in-bryan-texas-vote-decisively-to-join-nnoc-nnu

Suggesting nurses are anything but professionals is an insult. Tag a professional nurse who needs some extra appreciation today. 🫶

Nurses👏are👏professionals! Nurses fight like hell for the care our patients deserve. To every nurse: thank you. @BernieSanders

Trump and his billionaire buddies think they can strip millions from health care. Union nurses are fighting back to stop them from hogging our health care! 🛑 🐷 We’re rallying NOW to protect ACA subsidies and win #MedicareForAll.

By limiting nurses’ access to the educational pathways required for advancement, the Trump administration is only deepening the crisis driving nurses from the bedside. This is a direct attack on nursing — and when you take on one of us, you take on all of us.

As we gather, nurses uplift Indigenous voices and demand justice today and every day! We encourage you to support and follow these critical organizations: ✊ https://sogoreate-landtrust.org, ✊ https://www.therednation.org/, ✊ https://www.ienearth.org/, and ✊ treatycouncil.org.

The Trump administration wants to exclude graduate nursing students from professional loans. This is a direct attack on our profession and will only exacerbate the staffing crisis! www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nnu-co...

When nurses have a safe place to work and enough staffing, it benefits our patients. When our voices are heard – patients win!

47% of Americans are anxious about health costs. This isn't an abstract fear — it's a crisis we're seeing everyday. Health care should be a human right. We need #MedicareForAll NOW. https://nbcnews.to/43MA6GN

Nurses condemn the Trump administration's move to exclude nursing from its definition of professional degrees, making education harder to access. This move is at odds with the needs of nurses and patients!

Union rights allow us to advocate for patients! The Protect America’s Workforce Act would reverse the illegal executive orders silencing nurses who care for veterans. Call your Representative today 202-891-4745 —our veterans deserve advocates at the bedside. https://bit.ly/3JRHFFw

Maine nurses continued our strike today, with tremendous energy and determination to beat back management and win real improvements in patient care. Thank you to candidates @grahamformaine.bsky.social & Troy Jackson for braving the elements for what's right. Solidarity is our strength!

Photos from the picket line: Day one of a two-day strike at Houlton Regional Hospital in Houlton, ME. No amount of snow will stop our fight for patient care!

This isn’t the first time Ascension has cut a labor and delivery unit to prioritize its profits over patient care. Nurses stand with the Elk Grove community to demand Ascension keep this essential maternity service open. https://bit.ly/4oG7OpP

New Orleans nurses went on a three-day strike this week to stop LCMC's revolving door of staffing. We are fighting to retain experienced nurses and put patient care over corporate profit! ✊

Union nurses in Hialeah were on the picket line this week fighting for patient safety. We are demanding a fair contract with safe staffing to protect la comunidad!

🏥 Ascension and CommonSpirit are failing our communities by closing hospitals and cutting services. Nurses rallied in Baltimore this week to call on the U.S. Bishops to hold these hospitals accountable.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

⚜️ LCMC Health controls half the hospital beds in New Orleans — and they charge patients more than 5X the cost for services. For a treatment that only costs $100 to provide, patients are charged $576. 🤯 This is how they're creating a health care crisis: https://bit.ly/49Rra6I

Nurses are on the strike line for the third day in a row calling LCMC Health out for its nurse retention problem. We’re tired of LCMC’s revolving door strategy for staffing UMC. 📣 Experienced nurses with deep community roots are good for patient care! 📣

Patient safety is on the line. Miami nurses are fighting for a contract with safe staffing and retention! “HSA has failed, up to this point, to address in any meaningful way our core demands of patient safety and employee retention.” – Lazaro Garcia, RN https://bit.ly/3JXQQ74

New Orleans nurses are on the strike line this week because fewer and fewer staff are staying long-term at UMC. Meanwhile, LCMC executives are making obscene amounts of money. How about investing those profits into nurse retention instead of executive pay?

Former U.S. Labor Secretary Julie Su stands with New Orleans nurses striking for nursing staff retention today! When workers stand united, we’ll never be defeated!

🚨URGENT: The House could vote on a bad funding deal that will leave millions of people stuck with health insurance they can't afford. Call & tell these House Reps and tell them to hold the line and vote NO: Reps. Henry Cuellar, Jared Golden, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Vicente Gonzalez, and Susie Lee.

Senate Democrats caved on health care funding, which means millions of people's tremendous suffering over the past month was all in vain. We reject this bad backdoor shutdown deal!

Today is the first day of nurses' three day strike in New Orleans! We're on strike at UMC New Orleans because we’re tired of seeing great nurses leave LCMC because of the working conditions here. Nurses, our patients, and our community deserve better!

Maine nurses at Houlton Regional Hospital are taking a powerful stand with a two-day strike to demand safe staffing and high quality care! We need a strong contract that protects us and our patients and attracts and retains excellent nurses. www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/houlto...

A strike is a last resort but University Medical Center is refusing to recruit and retain experienced nurses. We’re tired of the revolving door policy that puts profits ahead of patient care. ✊ www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/new-or...

Maine nurses from Portland and Bangor are united! We’re fighting for union contracts with enforceable safe staffing ratios. Our patients' lives depend on it.

When open enrollment starts tomorrow, most people will pay 2X the cost for premiums. Republicans — who stole nearly $1 trillion from working people & gave it to corporations as massive tax cuts — are to blame. Congress must restore health care funding now! https://bit.ly/4nt2J2M

Sure, the jump scares and decorations might be a little spooky, but know what's really scary? When our patients' lives are put on the line — all so the hospital execs can make more money.

Nurses from 8️⃣ facilities in California took to the strike lines today to say loud and clear: Our patients’ care should always matter more than your company’s profits.

Why are millions facing an huge spike in health care costs? Because Republicans stole $1TN from working people’s health care & food assistance and gave it to corporations as huge tax cuts. Congress: Restore health funding and reopen the government now! https://to.pbs.org/3WZ9I8K

This is a public health emergency! 🚨 Trump is choosing to cut off food benefits that keep 42MM people from starving. He's playing with peoples' lives in an attempt to bully Democrats into caving on a funding bill without securing health care protections for working people. (1/5)

Millions of people could lose food benefits because of the government shutdown. This admin has made a clear choice to starve people — to fund tax breaks for its billionaire friends & corporate donors. Reopen the government & restore health funding, now! https://bit.ly/4op1d2I

California voters: Nurses urge you to vote #YesOn50! The rest of the country is depending on you.

This is infuriating: Almost half of the people in the U.S. are concerned about being able to pay for the health care or medications they need. We need #MedicareForAll NOW.

If ICE comes into your facility, you and your patients have rights! Nurses can play an important role in ensuring our hospitals remain places of healing. ❤️✊

Running health care like a business has tragic results for our patients! A new study shows that when private equity takes over our hospitals, not only do prices go up — so do patient deaths. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/14/private-equity-hospitals-medicare-patient-deaths

Nurses say: ICE out of the Bay! Militarizing our neighborhoods endangers public health and safety. Immigrants are not criminals — they’re our our families, our friends, our patients, and they are us! www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/cna-co...
