1199SEIU joined faith groups, peace & humanitarian orgs from Buffalo to meet with a rep from Congressman Kennedy's office. Our message to Kennedy is clear - co-sponsor the Block the Bombs Act (H.R.3565). American weapons should not be used to cause any more death and destruction in #Gaza.

Last night’s political action cruise aboard the Miss Buffalo was fabulous! More than 60 1199SEIU members from across WNY sailed into the evening with NYS Majority Leader & Assemblymember Crystal Peoples-Stokes who gave a fiery speech about protecting Medicaid & Medicare for our patients & residents!

🚨Cancel The Cuts! 1199SEIU members joined Congressman Timothy Kennedy, NYSNA, CWA, and local & state leaders yesterday at Schofield Residence in Tonawanda to sound the alarm about the impact the Big Ugly Bill will have on long-term care facilities. #BigUglyBill #CancelTheCuts #HandsOffMedicaid

1199ers at Corning Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare are celebrating their new 3-year labor contract! “We’re hopeful that the new higher pay rates will help us bring in new employees and keep our current ones,” said Heidi Bouton, Certified Nurse Assistant. www.1199seiu.org/news-informa...

🚨Tell Rep Claudia Tenney to stop the cuts! 1199ers & Tenney's constituents gathered outside of her office in #Canadaigua for a candlelight vigil, march, and speak-out to protest #MedicaidCuts in bill passed by the US Senate.

Happy National Nursing Assistants Week to all our incredible 1199 PCAs and CNAs! 👏

Your dedication, compassion, and hard work are the backbone of our healthcare system. Thank you for all you do to keep our communities healthy, safe, and thriving. ✊

Thank you @congressmannion.bsky.social for fighting to protect Medicaid funding!

@congressmannion spent time with our members at Oneida Center in Utica this morning to learn about the detrimental impact of $880 billion in Medicaid cuts.

We talked about how important it is to have #HandsOffMedicaid.

Our members at Samaritan Keep Home in Watertown are currently calling their member of Congress, Representative Claudia Tenney, to say “Hands Off Medicaid!”

Join them and call your Congressmember to say “Hands Off Medicaid!” at (866) 426-2631!

Great meeting w/ @rachelmayny.bsky.social in Albany talking about #MedicaidEquity in the budget.
