Partnerships SEIU and other unions share with health care employers like Catholic Healthcare West and Kaiser Permanente are highlighted.

  Faith in Action describes the year-long management campaign against Advocate Health Care employees who are coming together to improve patient care and working conditions by forming a union.

  Reactions to Faith in Action

  Statement by former General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board at a Congressional Town Hall Meeting on Worker Rights,
Fred Feinstein, a former general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board, discussed why current federal labor laws are “fundamentally unfair” and fail to recognize that “employers have significant economic control over the livelihood of the workforce and can and do use that fact to exert enormous pressure on employees to reject unionization.”
