Bargaining Boot Camp Tomorrow

Bargaining Boot Camp

We are less than three weeks out from beginning negotiations and it’s time for all hands on deck! This contract negotiation will take all of us to ensure that we get the best possible contract while fighting to defend our hard-won victories such as having the only contract in Washington with nurse-to-patient ratios.

Tomorrow, September 27, we will be gathering at the Titlow Park Picnic Shelter from 1300-1600 to gear up for contract negotiations. Come learn more about the contract, play some corn hole and kubb, learn some picket chants, and get to know you fellow WSNA nurses.

Can’t make it tomorrow? We will be holding another bargaining boot camp next Saturday on 10/4/2025. We know most nurses work at least one weekend and want to make this event available to everyone!

This family friendly event is open to all Tacoma General and Mary Bridge WSNA nurses, their friends and family, and well-behaved pets. Snacks and drinks will be provided.

See you there!

In Solidarity,
Your local unit officers
