In a 13-page decision, the NLRB's board members -- who’re
appointed by the president of the United States -- ordered SEIU-UHW to “cease
and desist from causing or attempting to cause Lakewood Regional Medical Center
to discharge or otherwise discriminate against [the worker] or any other
employee...”
They also ordered SEIU-UHW to have the worker returned to his job... and to make him “whole for any loss of earnings and other
benefits suffered as a result of the discrimination against him, with interest,
from the date of his discharge until the date he is reinstated.”
How much does SEIU-UHW owe him? Almost two years’ of
wages, benefits and interest.
Last week’s ruling is the latest step in a case that's lasted for 20 months because of SEIU’s senseless legal appeals. In July of 2011, a judge delivered a guilty verdict against Regan, who promptly
spent thousands more of SEIU-UHW's dues dollars to appeal the judge's decision to Washington,
DC. Attorney Bruce
Harland directed SEIU-UHW's attack against the worker.
Why did SEIU try to fire the worker in the first place? SEIU claimed he owed them
a whopping $236 in union dues, even though SEIU refused to provide him any accounting of the money. Meanwhile, the worker told the judge how SEIU failed to provide representation or support to union members at his hospital following SEIU's disastrous trusteeship in 2009.
In 2010, SEIU’s Dave Regan, Cory Cordova and YouTube star Liz Castillo teamed up against the worker.

The news about Regan's despicable attack against one of SEIU's own members is not widely known right now. But not for long! In last week's ruling, the NLRB ordered Regan to send a description of the NLRB's verdict to ALL of SEIU-UHW’s members by email and also to post it on SEIU-UHW’s website.
