Nurses’ Orders: New ‘Super-Union’ Pushes for Healthcare Reform
Friday, September 11, 2009
The progressive talking points for universal healthcare are often framed around the interests of patients. But one sector of the medical workforce is driving a movement at the intersection of organized labor and healthcare policy: nurses.
While lawmakers bicker and the public wades through a muddle of misinformation, the major nurses unions, particularly the California Nurses Association (CNA), are staking out bold positions on reform. Their efforts have culminated in a new union merger that seeks to align progressive nurses with other service workers as well as healthcare consumers.

And nothing could be farther from the truth.
