We're endorsing Tom Steyer for CA governor because he supports: ❤️ Single-payer health care systems like #CalCare, 👔 Ending corporate control over politics & working people’s lives, 💰 Taxing billionaires & corporations, and 🇺🇸 Protecting democracy. https://bit.ly/4bvqLI9

All across the state, nurses took action this weekend to mourn the murder of Alex Pretti. We're ready to channel our horror and anger into real action for our communities — we're calling for an immediate abolishment of ICE!

Nurses will crush ICE for our patients! Families and communities are being harmed, and we don’t have to fund it. Invest in our communities, not ICE! #AbolishICE

UCLA Santa Monica union nurses held a vigil honoring ICU nurse Alex Pretti, murdered in Minneapolis by federal agents. No hate, no fear, ICE is not welcome here!

All across the state, nurses are gathering with our community to honor the life of Alex Pretti. We demand justice for all of those hurt and killed by ICE. 🕯️ We must protect our communities and #AbolishICE.

📣 150 nurses mobilized in the Bay this afternoon with a march to the Alameda County Board of Supervisors meeting. 📣 We support @sup-nikkifbas.bsky.social's measures to send a clear message: ICE isn't welcome here!

On both sides of the Bay last night, hundreds of nurses, other health care workers, and community members gathered at UCSF facilities to mourn the loss of our fellow nurse Alex Pretti and demand an end to ICE terror in our communities. 🕯️

Tonight outside Kaiser Oakland, nurses gathered to honor fellow registered nurse Alex Pretti and demand justice for his murder by federal immigration agents. We are committed to the fight to #AbolishICE and build our vision for a healthy society.

Tomorrow, more than 150 RN leaders will march to the Alameda County Board of Supervisors meeting to back two critical proposals from @sup-nikkifbas.bsky.social: ❌ 🧊 ICE free zones and 📋 immigration enforcement response plans! ICE is not welcome here! www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nurses...

California nurses are outraged over the death of Alex Pretti, RN, and making our demands clear: Abolish ICE now! Armed secret police are a dire public health threat to our health, safety, and civil rights and democracy. Nurses believe in a world built on care, not harm.

#UnionStrong nurses know: Medicaid cuts will gut our hospitals. And when hospitals are gutted, lives are on the line. Nurses heed the call. That's why we're kicking off the 🚨Red Alert🚨 hospital tour in Los Angeles today — to save our hospitals and protect our patients. https://t.co/eS8Nz4K9oJ

One year into Trump’s presidency, nurses are standing up to the cruelty of ICE: Nurses in Burbank joined actions across the country to show up for our patients, our communities, and immigrant families. Abolish ICE!

Solidarity with Minnesota. Union nurses know the power of collective action against injustice — whether it’s unsafe patient care or an inhumane deportation machine. We will keep fighting for justice, at the bedside and in the streets. ✊

Today marks what would have been the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Since Roe was overturned, abortion access has been stripped away in many states. Nurses are clear: abortion is health care, and reproductive freedom is a human right.

@calhhs.bsky.social's proposed staffing standards for acute psych hospitals could create dangerous loopholes to California’s gold standard #SafeStaffing ratios. Imagine: one RN caring for up to 24 patients. 😱 We fought hard to win safe staffing standards, and we’re here to defend them!

California nurses are in Sacramento marching to defend RN-to-patient ratios! @calhhs.bsky.social can, should, and must extend the standards from EXISTING ratios instead of caving to hospital pressure to create new standards that threaten the #SafeStaffing that RNs fought for.

We are launching the Red Alert national tour to protect our hospitals as Trump and Republicans slash Medicaid to fund billionaire tax breaks and ICE. Join us Saturday at Glendale Memorial! https://act.nnu.org/signup/red-alert-tour-kickoff

NYC nurses are holding strong for patient and nurse safety on Day 9! Today, nurses at Mount Sinai West were joined by healthcare justice allies Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani and U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders. Together, we're calling out corporate hospital greed and speaking out for safe staffing.

Salinas showed up to fight for guaranteed health care for all with CalCare. Community members and nurses came together this weekend to win a future where everyone gets the care they need — regardless of job, income, or immigration status.

Nurses honor Dr. King's radical legacy by fighting racism, exploitation, and injustice in health care and our communities. #MLKDay ✊

When someone calls for help, nurses answer. As immigrants across the country face fear and violence from ICE, nurses are showing up, because we advocate for patients at the bedside and streets.

Nurses at Watsonville Community Hospital are fighting back against the proposed ICU closure. As a critical safety net, closing the ICU would endanger our community and force critically ill patients to travel farther for life-saving care.

California union nurses were on Capitol Hill today calling to remove RFK Jr., fully fund NIOSH, pass the Protecting America's Workers Act, and stop the DOE rule that undermines professional degrees. 💪

For decades, the public has ranked nurses as the most ethical profession. It’s a trust we earn every day at the bedside through our fierce patient advocacy. Nurses are committed to this legacy by ALWAYS putting patients over profits!

🚨Tonight🚨 at 6pm PT learn how Californians can take action to pass single-payer health care in CA with CalCare! 👉 RSVP: https://act.medicare4all.org/go/97725

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. is putting patients and vaccines at risk by gutting programs, undermining science, and spreading harmful misinformation. Congress must act now to remove him. Sign the petition: https://act.nnu.org/sign/remove-rfk-jr/

Trump & the GOP continue to attack our health care system, putting millions at risk of losing coverage, driving up ACA premiums, & pushing rural hospitals toward closure. CA can fight back with #CalCare! RSVP to join our statewide call Jan 13 at 6pm PT ➡️ https://act.medicare4all.org/go/97725

Union nurses to @capublichealth.bsky.social: Patients in acute psychiatric hospitals need the same safe RN-to-patient ratios as other hospitals. https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/registered-nurses-of-cna-strongly-object-to-state-proposal-on-staffing-ratios-for-acute-psychiatric-hospitals

Thanks to nurse advocacy, AB 692 is now law in California! This bans TRAPs or contracts forcing workers to pay thousands for basic job training if they left exploitative 2-3 year contracts.

Our patients deserve better.

Anaheim nurses know how to take action when management forces us into unsafe staff assignments. We’re always ready to fight for real solutions! https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/article/anaheim-nurses-strike-for-safe-staffing

This list is our reminder and our fuel for the fights ahead in 2026. Our collective strength is unstoppable!

Here’s to building working class power in 2026. 👏 Advance the movement for #CalCare, 👏 Stop the billionaire plundering of our collective resources, 👏 Organize union power across the workforce, and 👏 Fight for the dignity of all of our patients!

High-deductible plans and health savings accounts are a far cry from the relief our patients need. Nurses know the only way to address the health care crisis is with single-payer. Californians can lead the way with #CalCare in 2026!

This holiday, we celebrate the solidarity that fuels our work and wish our patients the health, safety, and dignity they deserve all year-round.

A holiday party during day shift in an administration conference room is not a solution for unsafe staffing. We demand real action for #SafeStaffing in 2026.

Last night, union nurses at Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs held a candlelight vigil and food drive, standing in solidarity for patient safety!

San Francisco, you are now a 100% union nurse town! 🎉 Nurses at @SutterHealth CPMC Davies just voted to join CNA, which now represents nearly 9,000 Sutter RNs in Northern California. This is a huge step forward for patient care in our community!

Nurses gathered last night with community members and our UPTE-CWA union siblings to mourn the tragic murder of Alberto Rangel at ZSFG and demand what we’ve always needed: #WorkplaceViolenceProtections

On the line at MarinHealth this morning: RNs calling out unsafe staffing, skyrocketing proposed health costs, and cuts to shift incentives. Nurses can’t care for our community if the hospital won’t care for its nurses.

When nurses at Kaiser South San Francisco learned that CBP was in the hospital with a detained patient, we took action quickly to send a clear message to management: Our patients’ rights have no borders and hospitals must remain a place of healing! ICE isn't welcome here!

Management at @MyMarinHealth Medical Center in Greenbrae are putting profits over patients. We’re picketing on Friday to demand #SafeStaffing now! https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/marinhealth-medical-center-nurses-to-hold-informational-picket-for-patient-safety

Putting a "non-professional" limit on loans for our advanced degrees is an insult to our clinical expertise. Let your communities know – this DOE proposal must be stopped!

CNA president Sandy Reding, RN spoke alongside Rep. Laura Friedman on the attempt to undermine the health care workforce and weaken our collective voice. Excluding nurses from graduate professional degree loans threatens patient care!

When our patients can barely afford their monthly premiums, we know they're going to avoid seeking care when they need it — all because they're afraid of the bills. Our system is terribly broken and we deserve better. We need #CalCare!

80 years ago, nurses got their first-ever collective bargaining agreement with CNA! Strong contracts = a strong voice for patient advocacy!

Today, nurses uplift and celebrate those who came before us. Find out what California ancestral land you're on: http://bit.ly/4a2xHeS

Imagine working in the ER when you see a woman screaming and throwing herself off the gurney. As a nurse, you'd rush over to assess the patient. That's exactly what Dianne Sposito, RN tried to do — until ICE stepped in to stop her. Read the full story.👇 https://bit.ly/3LOnh8P

When Republican's Medicaid cuts go into effect, hospitals across the country risk shutting down. And these closures don’t always happen in rural areas like you might think. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/18/upshot/urban-hospitals-medicaid-cuts.html

When our rights are under attack, what do we do? Union nurses stand up and fight back! ✊
