She Took Her 13-Year-Old Daughter to a Labor March. ICE Tear-Gassed Them Both. β€œIt seemed like it happened really fast. And there just were so many babies and kids and elderly people among us.”

The entire country is outraged by ICE's attacks on our non-violent labor march, just a fraction of the cruelty we see them enacting around the country each and every day. We need to speak in unison with a singular demand: ICE out of everywhere!

There’s Never Been a More Fitting Time for Democrats to Stop Funding ICE The money fueling ICE’s abuses comes directly out of the pockets of working Americans who are already struggling.

ICE is killing peopleβ€”and the public pays the bill.

As support for abolishing ICE grows, @ruwithsonali.bsky.social reports Democrats have a real chance to stop funding an agency terrorizing communities while healthcare gets cut.

Safe Staffing = Safe Care. It’s a simple equation. But right now, Kaiser is proposing that frontline workers not report violations to the state.

We demand a fair contract that puts patients first, not profits.

Technical employees on Kaiser Execs: β€œThey're about money, and money only.”
YouTube video by OFNHP Technical employees on Kaiser Execs: β€œThey're about money, and money only.”

Nearly 70% of the Kaiser medical technicians we rely on to help us breathe, see, and heal are struggling to put food on their own tables. 30% are worried about losing their housing.

Stand with us and demand a contract that respects our work and our patients. ✊🩺 www.ofnhp.org

A majority of our members voted that they have β€œno confidence” in Kaiser CEO Greg Adams because under his leadership Kaiser has drifted away from the principles that once made it a leader in high-quality patient care.

The Hidden Cost of Kaiser's Business Model
YouTube video by OFNHP The Hidden Cost of Kaiser's Business Model

Would you work an extra half-day every week for free? At Kaiser, we doβ€”because if we don't, our patients suffer.

Management is relying on our medical ethics to cover the gaps in their business model.

It’s time for Kaiser to invest in healthcare workers, not just the bottom line. www.ofnhp.org

Kaiser is raising premiums on loyal members by thousands of dollars a year, but they won't give their own healthcare workers a fair contract.
