So basically the nurses would have gotten the same exact thing from day one, all on their own, without all the upheaval? Why did those nurses even try to unionize in the first place if most of them didnt want it? What was gained by the effort? Its ...

Just to clear up a couple of things, it was not NYSNA that proposed this change. In fact, NYSNA has written OPPOSITION to it & is lobbying in Albany against it. It wasnt "the state" who proposed the changes either. A...
