.SEIU Local 73 members deserve better! 125 workers at UChicago Medicine have been in contract negotiations for more than six months. Workers’ wages and benefits have not kept pace with inflation. The union has filed multiple unfair labor practice charges against UCMC.

Our thanks to Sen. Lakesia Collins, Rep. Kam Buckner, and Rep. Curtis Tarver for supporting UChicago Medicine workers’ ULP strike! It’s time for UChicago Medicine management to come back to the bargaining table and offer a fair contract. #UCMCULPStrike State Senator Lakesia Collins Rep.Kam Buckner ✶ ✶ ✶ ✶

Maurice is one of nearly 150 UCMC Trades and Supply workers who are on ULP Strike demanding an end to intimidation and retaliation. UCMC must get back to the bargaining table now and give these workers a fair contract now! #UCMCULPStrike

Shame on UChicago Medicine for unleashing the second largest private police force in the world on workers exercising their rights. End the intimidation and return to the bargaining table! #UCMCULPStrike

All I'll say about the UnitedHealthcare CEO is that you should try to live your life so that if you ever get shot, the reddit news thread isn't full of people saying "Yeah, I get it."

Well, you see...

Really wealthy ppl finding out a small group of working class ppl on strike can fuck up their day, ruin their vacation, & cost them time & money is my FAVORITE reason to support strikes.

So let me get this straight, he wants contracts for cancer research cancelled but says let keep contracts for his company Spacex to do research. Greedy billionaire trying to ripoff the American people pretending to be altruistic is all I see.

Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics. interc.pt/4gJzoOb

Local 73 stands with SEIU California and President David Huerta. ICE's actions were a blatant attack on the right to observe and organize. They picked the wrong union — add our 38,000 strong to this fight!

CHICAGO — This might be the best man on the street interview I've seen all year. Well done, Don Lemon.

ICE has escalated its violence hoping we’ll stand down, and let them terrorize our neighbors. We will do no such thing. We’re sending a clear message: WE WANT #ICEOUT!
