National Day of Solidarity — San Francisco
Nurses rally in San Francisco as part of nationwide actions in support of safe staffing, patient protections against A.I.
100,000 National Nurses United members will bargain new contracts in 2025
Thousands of registered nurse members of National Nurses United (NNU) hold actions, including marches, protests, and rallies, on Thursday, Jan. 16 to demand the hospital industry ensure safe staffing levels and patient safeguards amidst the rapid introduction of artificial intelligence technologies.
More than 100,000 NNU members are entering contract negotiations with their employers, including multibillion-dollar health care organizations such as UCHealth and Dignity Health. In negotiations, nurses plan to confront industry decisions that undermine patients’ health and well-being and fail to address chronic RN recruitment and retention issues – in favor of increasing profits.
“Today, nurses across the country are taking to the streets to let our communities know that in 2025, as in all years past, we are committed to providing the highest quality of care for every patient,” said Nancy Hagans, RN and a president of NNU. “We will fight fearlessly against the profit-driven hospital industry, which seeks to undermine nursing care through unconscionable understaffing and reckless automation.”
