Tell Congress: Protect union rights of VA nurses and federal employees!

An executive order signed on March 27th seeks to strip federal employees of their protected union rights. Call your U.S. representative and senators using our script to demand that they step up to protect health care workers’ rights to advocate for patients with the guaranteed protections of a union.

Registered nurses at the Cincinnati VA Medical Center will hold a rally on Wednesday, May 21, to demand the administration abandon plans to cut some 80,000 workers from the VA, to reinstate VA workers’ full union rights, and to stop attacks on nurse benefits.
In a congressional briefing on Tuesday, May 20, registered nurses who work at Veterans Health Administration (VA) facilities across the country will share their stories about the state of veterans health care as a result of harmful actions by the current administration.
