'Now that we have our new union contract with $17, I can buy nutritious food and a gym membership. That's what our union is all about: supporting our well-being so we can be there for our clients.'
-Kealani Rogers, Home Care Worker #HomeCareForNV #CareIsEssential #UnionsForAll

To critically improve how care is provided in this country, the experiences of caregivers must be better understood. Thanks to President Biden, caregivers are finally being heard.

Today, the The White House hosted a convening for Care Workers Recognition Month & our Month of Action on Care.

TODAY: Our home care providers and Fairfax County SACC providers visited the The White House to celebrate the one year anniversary of the care executive order with our union sisters from 2015 and 775!

Powerful words from Athena! #CareIsEssential

“What is care? Care is investing in things that are worth it. Investing in people that are worth it. Investing in time.' Athena Jones, SEIU Care Is Essential #TheCareEconomy x.com/CareIsEssentia…

Through the first-ever Care EO signed by President Biden last year, as well as through the American Rescue Plan and the CHIPS and Science Act, this Admin is making transformational investments in child care, home care, paid family and medical leave, and tax cuts for workers and families.

“So when do we decide as a nation to say enough is enough? The 1% is at the apex, but a triangle cannot exist without the foundation. WE are the foundation.”

Powerful testimony from home care worker Athena Jones of SEIU Virginia 512 at today’s The White House Care Convening. #CareCantWait

Join us and advocates across the care industry for The The White House Care Convening, to discuss why we must invest in care and care work. #CareCantWait !

Care workers around the country get it, #CareCantWait !

Yep, TINA SNOW gets it—even the hotties are going to need care one day!

We urge Congress to defend care workers' rights to unionize without fear. It's essential for improving job quality & care.  #CareIsEssential #UnionsForAll

If we want the best economy in the world, we have to have the best caregiving economy.

But the cost of care is too high, and pay for care workers is too low.

Our nation’s caregivers are heroes – we need them – and under my budget, they're going to get the dignity they deserve.

Care workers and caregivers are critical to our nation’s families and our entire economy. Our Administration will keep working to lower costs for families for care and boost supports for care workers and caregivers.

#CareIsEssential and #CareCantWait !

Every care worker deserves a union! Our union empowers us to secure higher wages and better benefits, as well as to set industry standards. Let's keep pushing forward! #UnionsForAll   #CareIsEssential

“We are the United States of America and there is NOTHING beyond our capacity” — That’s right President Biden and winning respect, safe staffing and GOOD pay for care workers is what we WILL do! #TheCareEconomy #CareCantWait

Leaders like President Biden are with us as we demand respect, protections, and pay! When we have pro-worker leaders who push back against extremists trying to cut our care, WE CAN WIN. #CareCantWait

MomsRising and MamásConPoder are in Washington DC celebrating President Biden' budget, building #TheCareEconomy that our country urgently needs and finally setting up moms, families, businesses and our economy to thrive!
