Today, Jen Schultz joined nurses picketing in the Twin Ports. The informational picket comes as 15,000 nurses in the Twin Ports and Twin Cities seek new contracts which will put patients and workers before profits in Minnesota hospitals. Area nurses call on CEOs to put patients before profits and to approve fair contracts.
Jen Schultz released the following statement:
“Twin Ports nurses have sacrificed so much over the last two and a half years. Corporate healthcare prioritizes multi-million-dollar salaries for CEOs while leaving nurses to work in hospitals that are understaffed. I stand with Minnesota nurses and support their demands to receive fair and adequate compensation for the amazing work they do every day. Our nurses are overworked and underpaid. We need to put patients and community health before corporate profit margins.”
