If you are triple vaccinated no doubt
Interesting. I wonder what that represents to most healthcare workers in CA. $25/hr won’t go far with CA cost of living
I find minimum wage laws unconstitutional. Minimum wage isn’t what you have to be paid, it is simply banning all jobs below that amount.
When a 900sf home in a middle class LA neighborhood costs $500K...$25/hr min wage wont even make the mortgage payment. Who tf are they kidding?
Can someone explain how a city, county, or state can dictate what private companies are required to pay employees? Is there a legal basis or are employers bowing to threats?
Why make it so little? They should make it $1000.00 an hour, new house, unlimited new car every year, free food for life.
The liberal left... Useless, clueless assholes.
Many health care workers in Los Angeles are about to learn the true minimum wage = $0.00.
In my hospital, 10 years ago, Nurses were earning $77 Dollars an hour plus differentials.
That’s like $10/hr anywhere else.
I wonder what job codes are considered “health care workers?” Because there are a ton of non clinical jobs in health care. And, the professional, licensed jobs start at a lot more than $25/hr.
Does this include the hospital housekeeping staff, the food prep and servers, the admissions clerks, the receptionists? Will they not say they are healthcare workers too because they work in that setting?
Well, that ought to help the nursing shortage going on.
I recently had a relative in the hospital (Los Angeles) - the nurses were few and far between and the ones I could find were completely overworked and frazzled - they said their patient load had been upped and they were beyond exhausted.
We were told to go home and “someone from the nurse’s station would call us with updates” - no one ever called, of course, and when two of us called repeatedly it took five hours for someone to finally answer the phone number we were given. That person took our number and we were told “someone would call us ASAP” - no one ever did, of course, after two full days.
The relative didn’t have his cell phone and apparently the phone in his room wasn’t working - we were not allowed to visit this particular section of the hospital at that time. It was a nightmare. When the relative was finally strong enough and able to get to a phone his first words were “GET ME OUT OF HERE!”
My son went and picked him up later that day (died two days later at home and in peace).
SEIU is the purple gang
watch as lost Angeles starts to ship send people to apple valley and to Bakersfield for health care. you also will find that old folks’ homes for the poor will close down.
Why don’t they just put a padlock on hospital doors, and be
done with it?
SEIU is one of the more malignant unions, and powering this “equity’ cost push. Just part of inflation in the era of America’s fall.

Janitors, too.
So what is this really about..?
And California recently approved health care rights for illegals. How much spending CAN they mandate?
