A secret ballot election, administered by the NLRB. You need 50% + 1 for the union, to get the union. There are separate elections for each of 54 units which were voting. Ground rules: - No harassment from the employer - No harassment from the uni...

Good lord. The CNA busted the union. They ran the boss's campaign. It's just never going to be okay.

Miss Mab says: To now suggest that these intelligent RN's would somehow misinterpret forceful bargaining language instead as intimating sexual violence (...) Thee language the CNA used was not "forceful bargaining language". The California Nurses ...

You are misinterpreting what I sad; I would ask you to read the original post. The language the CNA used had an incredible violent undertone, and I just don't have any other explanation for it: Let's take a look at a piece of their lit: https://allnu...

This is absolutely false, and utterly disingenuous. CNA continues to trash other unions with no regard for the truth. More disturbing, is the way the CNA uses the fear of sexual violence to unnerve workers who are considering joining the union, as pa...

I am glad the Tenet nurses decided to form a union and I congratulate them on their victory. After the years of work SEIU put into winning the agreement, it would be heartbreaking to lose. https://allnurses.com/forums/f195/ohio-rn-s-launch-radio-ad-...

Agreed.

NRSKarenRN, I have written Chico David here, to talk about the point you raised about the conversation being quite negative in other threads. https://allnurses.com/forums/f323/i-don-t-get-cna-ohio-289547-4.html#post2741030 I think we all appreciate ...

justice4peace, RN4Mery and Ludlow, I have written Chico David here, to talk about the point NRSKarenRN raises. This just isn't a very nice conversation, and we ought to figure out what we have to do to make this a positive space. My letter is here. h...

Alright Chico David, Fair enough. Let's chill for awhile. I'll own my participation, and in particular you have my apology for calling Rose Ann DeMoro a "nut" in this venue, which certainly should be a more positive place. But what's good for the goo...

chico says and it's obvious your anger is getting really out of control. i'm a cardiac rehab nurse and i know how hard that can be on your heart. take some deep breaths, take a little walk, get another job. you'll feel lots better. yes i am outraged...

justice4peace, take a look at http://www.shameoncna.com these are the voices that will haunt you.

This reminds me of the global warming "debate". The oil companies go out and find the last two "scientists" on earth who will argue it isn't happening. Then they call it "the other side of the story". Anyone can find two "scientists" with actual scie...

Chico David, We just discussed this yesterday... This is a reference to an internal disagreement within SEIU. The intensity of our internal discussion ought to tell you something: we're an incredibly democratic organization. You don't get this level...

we sent nothing to anyone in texas. period. try another lie, cna. and another, another and another. cna's incessant chirping about how we are bad people for canceling an election rose ann demoro intentionally destroyed. it's just insane. the cna l...

Chico says: "Oh, I almost forgot: On the clarification you asked for, I meant the sudden massive SEIU presence on this site. All joined this month just for the purpose of attacking CNA." Your organizers used allnurses as part of your VOTE NO campaig...

For my part, if your asking whether I like your organization, no. CNA came to Ohio and conducted itself as a pack of arrogant, union-busting scabs and thugs. It's not bias. I really just cannot abide arrogant, union-busting small-minded scabs, traito...

Can you clarify, I don't think I follow you. In California? Around 600,000 Californians are SEIU members. Yep, that's us. (Did you accidentally run a VOTE NO at the wrong union?) This is a reference to an internal disagreement within SEIU. The in...

There are some real, honest differences. CNA is a craft union; they only organize nurses. At SEIU we believe workers are more powerful together. And I believe nurses in our union are proud to stand together with their coworkers. There are less-than-...

Oh, Chico! "Laying the foundations for organizing"? CNA hasn't laid the foundation for a country outhouse. You have never organized a worker, never bargained a contract, and never passed so much as a township ordinance in the state of Ohio. You have...

The California Nurses Association came to Ohio for one reason and one reason only - to destroy a three-year organizing campaign at 9 Ohio hospitals. There are no clever words for you to hide behind. That's what you did. Your holier-than-thou cloak i...

"RN Power", Wake up and smell the coffee, sister. The CNA is little more than a scab organization that grows off the backs of SEIU members, and by raiding other nursing unions. CNA's so-called leadership waits for our members' long-term investment i...

mountaincat says: "what kind of legitimacy do you expect this contract to have with the rank and file, when there is no open record of majority support?" baloney. there were secret ballot elections scheduled, one for each unit of 9 hospitals to vote....

"RN Power", It is childishly dishonest to pass off that letter to the editor as a "an article from Ohio nurse". It's by a friend of yours, a CNA activist. Just a few weeks ago the two of you testified together at the Statehouse in Columbus, opposing ...
