UW can either bring proposals to meet our and our patients’ needs, or we will move forward with a vote to authorize a strike.
UW administration has had numerous opportunities to meet our needs in bargaining but have been slow to do so. Their proposals are not enough and they don’t meet the needs of our patients nor our own needs as healthcare professionals. We have showed our unity through collective actions, shared our stories, and yet our ability to provide the quality care our patients deserve is still compromised.
