Our Message to SEIU: GO AWAY!

While DaVita teammates are dedicated to giving life to our patients, SEIU-UHW is only interested in making millions more in union dues, even if it costs patients their lives.



SEIU Denying Employee to Vote!

SEIU takes away employees’ rights to secret ballot votes in order to get more union dues.

SEIU’s strategy to unionize a workplace differs from the ideals of a democratic process. Rather than collecting signed petitions to hold a secret ballot vote on whether a majority of employees want to form a union, the SEIU prefers to pressure employers into a so-called “neutrality agreement” through a “corporate campaign.”



Fake Fast Food Strike by SEIU

By disguising multimillion-dollar SEIU organizing operations as grassroots “worker centers,” SEIU deceives employees and the public. As part of a campaign of fake “fast food strikes,” P.R. consultants paid an annual seven-figure retainer by the SEIU are leading an effort to extend SEIU’s top-down un-democratic unionization scheme to the restaurant industry.



Network of Ethnic Physician Organizations Opposes Proposition 8 – the Dangerous Dialysis Proposition

The #NoProp8 coalition continues to grow. The Network of Ethnic Physician Organizations (NEPO) officially opposes Prop 8 and has joined the #NoProp8 coalition. NEPO is coalition of more than 40 ethnic physician organizations in California.

Dr. Margaret Juarez, president of the Network of Ethnic Physician Organizations, stated, “Prop 8 is dangerous for all dialysis patients, and particularly for communities of color who have a higher incidence of kidney disease, and who live in areas where access to dialysis care is already strained. By forcing dialysis clinic reductions and closures, Prop 8 jeopardizes access to care for patients who need this critical treatment to survive.”
