WE ARE CAREGIVERS — And We’re Taking a Stand for Our Patients & Communities

Healthcare workers stand in the street in counter-protest to hundreds of people who gathered to demand the stay-at-home order be lifted in Denver on Sunday.

We stand with our fellow healthcare workers across the country by rejecting calls to let our communities return to “business as usual” prematurely. We’re still facing way too many infections and deaths, PPE and testing shortages, and overcrowded hospitals. We will not let the anger and recklessness of a small minority of Americans put more lives on the line.

This new LA Times article, featuring our fellow SEIU-UHW member Andrea Tuma, captures the “danger and anxiety” so many of us are facing on the frontlines everyday — and supports our conviction that we cannot loosen stay-at-home orders too early.
