[1]National Nurses United
Every year there’s a special week dedicated to nurses.
Nearly one hundred nurses in the United States have died so far from
COVID-19. To honor our colleagues and those of us health care workers who
are still putting our lives at risk, we’re holding a nationwide virtual
candlelight vigil at the conclusion of Nurses Week.
By coming together, we will not only honor these nurses, but also call
attention to the lives that are at stake if our elected leaders continue
to leave us without the proper PPE we need. We must join together to say
enough is enough.
Will you stand in solidarity with nurses and join our virtual candlelight
vigil this Tuesday, May 12th, at 6:30pm PT/9:30pm ET? [ [link removed] ]Click here to

Since the beginning of this crisis, nurses have been put at risk and
exposed to COVID-19 without proper protections — many losing their lives
to the virus. But it didn’t have to be this way.
Employers and Congress have refused to take action to protect nurses even
as more and more of us die due to the lack of PPE and other protections.
That’s why we are coming together on Tuesday night to create a space to
collectively mourn the lives of nurses who have died and empower one
another to take a stand in continuing to demand protections from employers
and Congress.

on Facebook Live as soon as it starts.
Nurses Week may be coming to an end, but we will never stop speaking out
until nurses are protected as we fight on the front lines to keep you
safe.
In solidarity,
National Nurses United
