To truly honor #IWD2023 and its goals, we must revisit the story of International Working Women's Day, of thousands of fed-up workers boiling over into the streets of New York.

Today, we celebrate what we've accomplished and make an honest assessment of what oppresses us. (1/11)
The RNs of @NationalNurses have a reputation for being outspoken, for being militant, and for being unafraid to strike when necessary.

So we feel a real kinship with the working women who led a history-changing strike that gave rise to #InternationalWomensDay. (2/11)
The earliest known "Women's Day" celebrations were held in New York City in March 1910 to celebrate garment workers.

WATCH LIVE: Pascaline Muhindura, RN brings her experience as a frontline nurse to the @EdLaborCmte Workforce Protections Subcommittee hearing "Clearing the Air: Science-Based Strategies to Protect Workers from #Covid19 Infections."

#ProtectNurses
NNU member Pascaline Muhindura, RN to the subcommittee:

1️⃣ My employer has failed to #ProtectNurses.
2️⃣ @CDCgov and @OSHA_DOL have also failed to protect us.
3️⃣ The CDC and OSHA must take 💥immediate💥 steps to ensure that nurses and other workers get the protections we need.
Muhindura continued:

For more than a year, I have been caring for patients in a #Covid unit in my hospital.

EVERY SINGLE NURSE & #HealthCareWorker in my unit contracted Covid because we were not given the protections we need.

My colleague Celia, lost her life.🕯️❤️
