DULUTH, MN (CBS-3) – The Minnesota Nurses Association (MNA) will vote Monday on whether they want to go on strike amid contract negotiations with hospital leaders.
At a news conference Thursday, organization leaders said the vote will happen Monday, August 15, with results announced August 16 in Duluth.
If the vote passes with a supermajority, nurses would give hospital leaders ten days before officially leaving the bedside. The MNA has not clarified what percentage of votes a “supermajority” would be, as the term is wide-ranging.
Union leaders said around 15,000 nurses have been working in healthcare facilities without contracts since March of this year.
