Ride is a loop
Please join more than 1800 nurses who are striking against Providence Portland Medical Center, Providence Seaside Medical Center and Providence Home Health and Hospice. We are fighting for market competitive wages and benefits, safe staffing to allow for better patient care, and holding Providence accountable for the many unfair labor practices it has committed against its workers! After enduring a pandemic, it is shocking that hospital executives have chosen to treat their nurses this way! For more than 8 months Providence has been dragging its feet to settle a fair contract with its nurses and now flat out refuses to meet with them. Instead of settling the contract to continue operations and service to the community, Providence has canceled more than 500 elective surgeries, closed its doors to the NICU and Mental health units, and is spending nearly 15 million dollars on flying in scab nurses from across the country to work throughout the strike. Ride will occur rain or shine. Please wear your union gear if you are part of a union. Swag will be available. Bring music speakers and PUMP IT UP!
