# [#]John,
During National Nurse Week, I’m thinking about all the courageous nurses that have uplifted and provided for our communities. If the COVID-19 pandemic taught us anything, it’s that nurses are often our first line of defense. They deserve to work in safe working conditions.
That’s why I’ve introduced a bill that will improve patients' health as well as improve nursing care. My bill will *
Establish
minimum
registered
nurse-to-patient
ratios
in
hospitals.
*
Provide
whistleblower
protection
for
nurses
who
advocate
for
their
patients.
*
Invest
in
training
and
career
development
to
keep
hard-working
nurses
in
the
workforce.
If you’re with me, will you add your name now to show your support for nurses nationwide? [[link removed]]

Numerous studies have shown that safe nurse-to-patient staffing ratios result in higher quality care for patients, lower healthcare costs, and an overall better workplace for nurses. Let’s take action to uplift one of our most important workforces! Add your name now to stand with our nurses.
Thanks so much,
Jan
