URGENT ACTION NEEDED: Nurses to UC President Napolitano

It is appalling that UC Management would attempt to destroy and destabilize our nurses retirement after we’ve spent our lifetime taking care of our patients. Today join your colleagues in letting President Napolitano know that attempting to destabilize our pension is bad for patient care.

The proposal to eliminate our secure pension is disrespectful to the dedication we have to our patients and our profession. 90% of the nurses at UC are women. Women are almost twice as likely as men to live below the poverty line during retirement.  Attempting to erode our pension only takes us backwards.

President Napolitano we urge you to support and stand behind the nurses and maintain the secure retirement plan that we currently have.

Nurses and the caregivers are the heart of our University of California. We will stand up until our profession and our patients win.
