Legislative Alert: Please Call Today!

Your calls needed today on CNA bills to hold hospitals accountable and protect patients and nurses.
 
Critical CNA-sponsored legislation is up for critical votes this week in the Appropriations Committees in the California Senate and Assembly.
 
Your voice – and your calls – can make the difference in whether we can advance these bills.
 

Call Senate Appropriations Committee Chair Kevin DeLeon: 916-651-4022
 
Tell him, I am a California registered nurse.
 
I urge you to pass AB 503, to ensure that California non-profit hospitals are properly providing and reporting, with uniform standards, what how much charity care and community benefit services they give our patients and communities in exchange for their taxpayer funded non-profit status.
 
I am also asking you to pass AB 2533 so that my patients can go to the doctor or hospital for the medical care they need without facing financial ruin if they go outside their restrictive insurance network.
 

Call Assembly Appropriations Committee Chair Mike Gatto: 916-319-2043
 
Tell him, I am a California registered nurse.

I urge you to pass SB 1299, the Healthcare Workplace Violence Prevention Act to ensure that all California hospitals have an effective plan to prevent and reduce hospital workplace violence to protect my patients, their families, hospital visitors, and everyone who works in a hospital.
