The Union Labor Advisory Network's Michael Fina interviewed Craig Ford Secretary-Treasurer of District 1199J, National Union of Hospital and Health Care Employees, AFSCME, AFL-CIO
We discussed the local, and their essential workers who work tirelessly to keep us all safe and healthy during this pandemic and difficult economic times.
Craig discussed the impact on their healthcare funds and how the Covid testing needed to ensure the safety of all involved is creating issues financially on their funds. (* correction to Craig's mentioned $26 million in Covid testing. $2.6 million was corrected approximate amount as per date interviewed.)
We thank Craig and the entire executive board, staff and all of the essential workers and members for all of their dedication and support.
