Hey! We're currently undergoing this at our hospital. I'm in Massachusetts, but we're owned by a dogshit Texas corporation. They're actively union busting us, filing frivolous appeals to delay our vote, bringing in corporate travelers to spread lies about the union.
Fuck Texas. Fuck hospital corporations.
Good thing Biden moved to get a standard at the nlrb that made union busting, more easily penalized, giving them broad powers just to certify.

Yeah, they're already in the shit with the NLRB. They appealed our vote twice, most recently to DC, crying that Massachusetts NLRB was just oh-so-unfair to the poor corporation because of a strike they had at our sister hospital a couple years ago. DC pretty immediately was like, "Lol, no. DENIED." It was a beautiful memo to read.
