Our unions dues should not be paying for anyone’s lawyer without our knowledge or a vote asking if it’s ok. They can pay for their own lawyer, just like everyone else.

This kind of behavior makes our union weak. I have wondered why our contract has been weak, why reaching our union has been difficult, why things aren't being taken care of over the past several months. This seems to be the problem. Maybe its time to change things up at MNA, so our union can function correctly again and actually advocate for the nurses. We cannot allow such behavior to represent nurses; this isn't who we are.

Transparency. In a member lead union, members receive transparency. Plain and simple. MNA must provide it. MNA must answer to the membership. Why do we continue to terminate the best organizing minds we have ever had? Thank you.

We should be careful with this. MNA says the guy suing us was put on paid leave so that MNa could have outside investigator look into complaints that he discriminated against female and Black staff members. The lawyer also said the investigator found that the guy made up the complaints about Woodall and refused to talk to the investigator the board hired. So he is suing for the same thing he was fired for? https://publicaccess.courts.state.mn.us/CaseSearch/DownloadDocument

This is deeply concerning and as nurses we don’t represent this behavior and it certainly cannot be representing us!

Allina is in the midst of a merger and has fired Andrew Dunn right in the midst of this complex negotiation..,North Memorial was able to negotiate with MNA backing, an agreement which would cause untoward repercussions in their merger with Sanford.. Meanwhile Allina nurses are STILL fighting against a very active campaign to gut our contract language and has ONCE AGAIN had the rug pulled out from under them in this firing and is left to fight on their own without explanation nor backing from MNA

Fuck MNA. They don't do what they should for their nurses. They used to be a strong union. Grievances and other issues aren't dealt with in a timely manner. I'd rather be SEIU.

A union represents all members, we deserve open communication and transparency. We need to get back to nurse's being our focus.
