Paying for representation that the majority of nursing staff do not need or want.
Due to the recent events of intimidation and bullying.
Union history of misrepresentations of our right to decide to be a member or nonmember.
Dividing management and nursing staff against each other.
Misrepresentation of what the union actually does for RMC when staff has actually done the work.
Paying for union “work trips” that do not directly affect the nursing staff at Research Medical Center.
Why is it so important to sign the petition for a re-vote on having the union present or NOT present at RMC? Who keeps hearing about Prop A? It’s super confusing with all the politics involved. Here is what I have researched and found out: “The right to work” is included in Prop A. This will be put on a ballot in August for people in Missouri to vote against, or in favor. What does this mean for the nurses at Research Medical Center? If the majority of voters do not vote in favor of Prop A, then we could still be required to pay dues as a condition of employment at the hospital and because of the union. That’s why the petition for a re-vote at RMC is so important at THIS time. We want a re-vote to hear our voice and our choice. If the hospital and the union come to an agreement and a new contract is made, it doesn’t matter what the vote is on Prop A; the nurses at RMC will be bound to this new contract and still required to pay dues. These contracts are in place for 3 years.
