United Nurses & Allied Professionals

Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit RI Jobs with Justice.

The short explanation of this alert was:

In spite of widespread public support, unanimous passage in the House and Senate, and compelling research on the dangers associated with mandatory overtime, Governor Carcieri has vetoed a mandatory overtime law that would prohibit hospitals from forcing nurses and nurse's aides from working beyond their scheduled shift, except in true emergencies. 

Please take a moment to send an email to your State legislators asking them to stand up for safe patient care and OVERRIDE THE GOVERNOR'S VETO.
