Newly Formed 150,000-Strong Nurses' Union Pushes for Single-Payer Healthcare

Three of the countrys top organizations of direct care registered nurses have come together to form a new national nurses union that is advocating for a single-payer national health insurance program. The new union unifies the California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee, United American Nurses, and the Massachusetts Nurses Association into a 150,000-member association, making it the largest registered nurses union in US history. We speak with Geri Jenkins, a registered nurse and co-president of the union. [includes rush transcript]

  • As a socialized canadian, I want a fucking private option.

  • fuck off

  • Plutonwolf-

    In California, those who are poor are already covered by MediCal. After being involved in an accident, my brother stayed in the hospital 5 days, and he paid nothing. He's out of work, and MediCal covered him. In California, I'd say the system worked fine for him. Why fix something that isn't broken?

  • As for the American public, the reality that Obama is not up to the job seems to finally be setting-in; the poll numbers are now headed steadily south- is he already facing his Waterloo on this legislation?

    Barack Obama will never say to your face what he actually plans to do. Everything's rolled-out in a Trojan horse. Theyll be no private insurance industry left after five years. Why should we give Government medical insurance to 15 million illegals?

    It's death care for the elderly

  • whos going to pay for it you if you have a job goodbye at least 30%more
