Millions of people are out of work and relying on #Medicaid for healthcare during the #COVID19 pandemic. It’s time for @senatemajldr and the Senate to #protectallworkers by passing the #HeroesAct. Image
"The $200-a-week Republican plan would give the average worker about $521 a week in federal and state unemployment benefits, according to a CNBC analysis of Labor Department data for May." cnbc.com/2020/07/27/une…
"That amounts to a 43% cut in total benefits when compared with the prior, $600-a-week policy, a temporary measure enacted in March under a federal relief law."

Honoring Your Work During Nurses Month: A Message From President Becky Williams: "For over a year, you have been on the frontlines of the COVID19 pandemic. I personally want to say thank you for your brave work during this unprecedented time of crisis."
"As nurses, you have always been heroes — for your families and the public. I know you have seen the pandemic in a way not many would understand. You have also spoken out for protective equipment, hazard pay, and safe staffing, all while saving lives and providing vital care."
"This crisis has proven once again how important it is for working people and nurses to have a voice at work. Together, nurses as Union members will continue to speak out for safe staffing, quality care, and the dignity that nurses everywhere deserve."

"The pandemic exposed long-standing problems in the nursing home industry that stem from chronic understaffing and underspending on care for residents — problems often motivated by owners who place profit-seeking above their residents' welfare." #Union newsday.com/opinion/corona…
"Understaffing, for example, is possible — and profitable — because the U.S. regulatory system charged with ensuring that nursing homes provide safe care has failed." #SafeStaffingSavesLives
"Meanwhile, the House Ways and Means Committee has held hearings on the role of private equity in nursing homes. Such investors have decided that nursing homes can be profit centers, and they buy them with the intent of squeezing out more money." #UnionsForAll

"Staffing shortages were a problem in the industry long before the pandemic, but COVID-19 exacerbated the problem. Many workers left the field, and new workers were reluctant to take their place and risk getting sick." #UnionsForAll cincinnati.com/story/news/202…
"COVID-19 made working in a nursing home one of the deadliest jobs in America, according to an analysis of federal data by Scientific American magazine."
"Being short-staffed can mean nursing home workers take on more responsibilities than they normally would and can lead to staff getting overworked. When workers get tired, they might pay less attention to infection control measures that protect themselves and residents."
