What Can We Win Together? Hear from Hudson Valley 1199SEIU Members:
"Joining 1199 gave us the power to fight back against a new corporate owner that was trying to downgrade our healthcare. Together, we fought to win no-cost healthcare with zero co-pays, no deductibles, and no premiums. In my case, that’s almost an extra $600 a month. When dues are only 2% of your salary, up to a maximum of $125 a month, it’s a no brainer.”
John Perusse, Lead Surgical Tech, Northern Dutchess Hospital
