Submitted by smaple on

What will happen now that I’ve taken over as the next Executive Director of the California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee/National Nurses United? The mighty nurses will continue to fight for patients over profits. And together, we will win.

To be a nurse is to be mighty. We never give up. RNs are a steadfast force of protection that our patients and their families can count on, day in and day out.
