As patient and social advocates, registered nurses across
the nation are calling for a Main Street Contract for the
American people. Our communities are sick. They need
living-wage jobs, healthcare, good schools,
food, shelter, and other basic necessities.
To show the extent of the problem and
win this contract, we need everyone
to speak up about how the depressed economy is
hurting your household, your friends, your patients,
and your community. We've all kept silent for too long.
It's not your fault.
