These Miami hospital workers made calls during their lunch break today to tell Congress to support the Dream & Promise Act to give immigrant caregivers a path to citizenship. Follow their lead and call Congress now at 888-558-8718. #healthcareneedsallofus @1199seiu.org

Vote early now or on Election Day, Aug 18. Support candidates who will address the affordability crisis, protect our healthcare and create good union jobs. #OurVoteOurPower #WeCareWeVote

HCA’s 2026 bonus structure reveals their true priorities. 80% of executive bonuses are tied to profit (EBITDA), while only 20% is tied to quality. At HCA, “Care” is just a fraction of the bottom line. #peopleoverprofits

In 2025, HCA’s CEO was paid nearly 420 times what the median worker earned. While we struggle with rising costs and short-staffing, HCA is prioritizing corporate wealth over the people who provide the care. It’s time to invest in the frontline. #FairContractNow #PeopleOverProfits

Healthcare workers are proud to endorse Shevrin Jones for Congress. He has a proven track record of standing with working families & he’ll find solutions to deliver affordable housing, protect healthcare, safe communities & good jobs. #ShevrinJones @1199seiu.org #ourvoteourpower #WeCareWeVote

Angie Nixon’s campaign for U.S. Senate gained another key endorsement. Rep. Maxwell Frost announced his support for #AngieNixon Healthcare workers have also endorsed Nixon because they know she will work hard to tackle the affordability crisis & protect healthcare. @1199seiu.org

IMPORTANT (share widely!): Haitian & Syrian TPS holders remain in status for now. ✅ Contact your union rep if your employer attempts to terminate you due to the Supreme Court decision and because of the 7/10 date posted on the USCIS website–THIS IS INCORRECT. Find your local: seiu.co/FindMyLocal
