As socialists, we believe it is an absolute travesty that anyone could have their finances turned upside down for what is fundamentally a human right: access to health care. That's why we've launched a fundraising campaign to relieve debt for those in our area! Donate at gbdsa.org/s/UndueDebtR... !

We are proud to stand with the registered nurses at MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center! We strongly support your effort to organize with the National Nurses Organizing Committee. We believe you should be able to choose to join a union without management interference, intimidation, or harassment.

Greater Baltimore Democratic Socialists of America stands with the registered nurses at MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center. Group photo of nurses from National Nurses United at a rally. Logo for GBDSA, raven holding rose.Dear Registered Nurses, As leaders and members of the Baltimore metropolitan community, we are deeply grateful to you for your dedication and hard work as caregivers and patient advocates for the people of our county and the surrounding communities. Our community relies on your skills, experience, and professionalism to heal the sick and injured, help deliver healthy babies, care for us in our times of need, and so much more. We understand that your ability to provide quality, therapeutic care and to advocate for your patients can be undermined by negative working conditions, dangerous understaffing, workplace violence, inadequate recruitment and retention measures, and lack of support from management. Such conditions not only make it difficult for you as registered nurses and health care professionals, they impact the care and welfare of patients and members of the community who depend on Medstar Franklin Square Medical Center. For these reasons and because we support the right of all workers to organize and bargain collectively, we strongly support your effort to organize with the National Nurses Organizing Committee, part of National Nurses United. We believe you should be able to choose to join a union without management interference, intimidation, or harassment. It is in the interests of all members of the Baltimore metropolitan community that you have a voice at work through your union and that you will have the ability to collectively negotiate over your working conditions so that you will be able to most effectively advocate for the patients in your care. The choice of whether to join the National Nurses Organizing Committee is yours alone. Please know that we will stand with you as you organize your union and will provide you with our full support. In Solidarity, Greater Baltimore Democratic Socialists of America. Logo of GBDSA, raven holding rose.
