Another Hospital Votes to Join NUHW!

Earlier today, the ballots were counted in a decertification election at Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital in Hollister, California. SEIU-UHW has represented 175 workers at the hospital... that is, until workers voted them out of office! Here's the final tally:

NUHW:  75
SEIU-UHW:  61
No Union:  2

Way to go, Hazel Hawkins workers!

That's two victories in a row for NUHW! Last month, 450 workers at Children's Hospital in Oakland, CA also voted to join NUHW and decertify SEIU-UHW.

Keep it up, healthcare workers!
