In case you missed it: Two executive orders were signed earlier this year seeking to strip federal workers – including more than 15,000 VA nurses – of our protected union rights.

We will not stand by and let the Trump administration silence us.

Thanks to your continued advocacy, the Protect America’s Workforce Act – a bill in Congress that would restore our union rights – has received the 218 signatures required to bring it up for a floor vote in the U.S. House. It’s time to step up the pressure! ✊

Here’s the thing: we need your support to get this bill passed. We’re asking our allies like you to write letters to members of Congress urging them to pass this urgent legislation.

Can we count on you to take action at your representative’s local office by writing a letter and delivering it in person? You can find instructions on how to write a letter, print it out, and deliver it by clicking here.

As you know, union rights are critical to the health and safety of nurses and the patients and communities we care for. That’s why we’re so grateful you’re with us.

Thanks for all you do.

In solidarity,

National Nurses United
