Your WSNA negotiation team met with Skagit Regional Health administration for our second contract bargaining session on Wednesday, May 30.

Administration has made proposals that jeopardize the security of our retirement and health benefits.

We have our work cut out for us - let’s show them that we are up to this!

How you can help your WSNA negotiation team get the best contract:

1. Wear a WSNA button every day you are at work.
2. Attend a CEO Forum and speak to Brian Ivie in support of our WSNA negotiation team:
   • June 5 in the main campus, Sahalee Room
     • 7:30 - 8:30 a.m.
     • Noon - 1 p.m.
     • 5 - 6 p.m.
   • June 6 in the Riverbend Clinic conference room
     • Noon - 1 p.m.
   • June 13 in the Riverbend Clinic conference room
     • 7 - 8 a.m.
   • A WSNA member will hand you a “cheat sheet” before you speak to him so we are all saying the same message in support of our contract negotiations.
3. Mark your calendar for a drop-in style WSNA meeting on June 12 from 4:30 - 8 p.m. at Round Table Pizza in Mt Vernon. Your WSNA RN bargaining team wants to meet with you!
4. Talk about negotiations while you are at work and on break. The breakroom is always a safe place for this. We want our managers to know that nurses are talking about contract negotiations.

Our next contract bargaining session is Tuesday, June 5. Stop by the WSNA table that day from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. to get “real time” updates from WSNA organizers. This is also a great way to get buttons, to share issues and to find out how YOU can help us all get the best contract.

Your WSNA contract bargaining team,

Liz Rainaud, Alice Riddle, Jessica Knutzen, Rachel Yates, Alyssa Stirpe and Peter Moore
