From a friend of mine who is a nurse when asked if they’re going to strike:
> A bunch of NYP hospitals including mine (Columbia) have voted yes to striking, but that doesn’t mean we will actually strike. But if management doesn’t give us what we’re asking for, then we will strike.
> We’re asking for better pay, better staffing, to keep our health benefits, etc etc
> It’s insane because NYP execs each get millions per year like 10+ million in salary and they’re “penny pinching” nurses. Not giving us enough raises based on inflation
They are preparing to strike but hopefully hospital administrators agree to the terms beforehand so the strike is avoided

I mean that’s the essence of a strike. Give us what we want or don’t work.

It is a shame that it always has to come to this in order to get a better quality of life.

Wish you the best. Recently had my Son admitted to the NICU at Cornell and you were all amazing. Stressed but amazing you deserve this.
