1199SEIU members are ramping up visibility in the city of Boston. Twelve 1199SEIU members working at Boston Medical Center, Morton Hospital, and Good Samaritan Hospital were featured in a new campaign of subway advertisements at the Tufts Medical Center MBTA station. The ads show healthcare workers from all parts of the hospital team and encourage non-union workers to organize. Twelve reasons, including higher wages, free college tuition, and affordable health insurance were listed as key factors for joining 1199SEIU. For more information about how you can support this campaign, go to WeCareforMA.org.
A special kudos to the following members for participating in the photo shoots and leading the way for their brothers and sisters!
