- The Hawaii Nurses' Association held another rally today at the Hawaii State Capitol with Kapiolani's nurses still locked out. Hawaii Sen. Kurt Fevella, R - Ewa Beach, joined the nurses, calling for an end to the lockout and blasting state leaders for not intervening.
My son is a nurse and would rather have less pay with lower ratios. The problem is that the union wants both a higher pay AND a lower ratio.
I feel sad for the nurses as they are being misled by the Union. It seems the union wanted to be greedy, and would not budge during the negotiations. Now the ball is in the hospital's court, and they can do what they want. It is time to get rid of the useless unions.
They are asking too much of the hospital. At the rate of pay they cannot afford to hire more nurses.
No there not, this is an issue of staffing, not money.
Than take money off the table. The hospital is not a social program.@@LonnieBrewer-dd4wi
Nah. This is what protesting is. It comes with consequences and you get to decide what is best for you. So losing benefits comes with that territory.
Yup!
No it shouldn't..
Actions & consequences.
Cause & effect.
Think before you act
Looks like…clowns to my left…and jokers to my right.
The longer they stay out the more it looks like their demands are unfounded because the hospital is doing kind of okay without them.
lol that’s funny because their hospital is understaff to begin with now it’s completely ran with a blind eye. Why would they ask to call it an end if their points not getting across?
This dude is trying to garner support for his next political move smh useless grifter
Maybe the nurses should have read the contract better. If the lockout was illegal…a lawyer would have been all over it. Not illegal
This doesn't warrant legal counsel.
BTW, the bigger the envelopes for those crooked unions.
Nursing students, CNA students, MA students pay attention. Students at the medical school and other medical auxiliary colleagues pay attention in higher education. Those who have not declared their major and those in the high schools on track for nursing at Waipahu and the programs at HPU, HCC/KCC, UH-Hilo and Chaminade pay attention to how society supports our profession.
Learn how unions can get greedy and have no intentions of taking care of the members. It's all about the Union dues.
Actually agree 💯. This is great case study example IRL for education. As toxic as other comments can be, they can also be informing to the discerning student of life. This is documentation in real time to critically think of all factors involved. Mahalo!
Noone supports your strike. Take the deal or go work private and make half of what you think youre worth. And yes not signing a contract means you dont get to go back to work. Thats not extortion thats a choice. Actions have consequences.
This true. They are free to quit.
Isn't going on strike a form of extortion?
They didn't think their strike was extortion.
Walk out lock out. Whats hard to understand... Hawaiian 🤷♂ Neva think b4 u guyz wen ack, hah? Now u feeling' it. Bet the union saying, no worry. Ur Unions Dues Wasted.
ah all you guys want more money,,,how can these state workers get increased pay on their salaries and nurses get130-160k and say these conditions are not tolerated 😮 oh now you wanna go back to work ? i hope the hospital stands their ground
Senator Fevella 130 to 160thousand and now they are worried about their medical.
I'm in the carpenter union and we're out of work all the time. I paid my cobra payments and have medical for 18 months.
Sorry the guy is an idiot.
The lockout will end when the nurses sign the new agreement! Stop playing games!
Nothing more than a political clown. Where was he when the union members went on strike? Where were these employees when they didn't care about the patients, and they didn't show up for work? The Union wants to play games and threaten the hospital, but now they are crying when the hospital called them out. The clown is acting like a democrat.
Funny how republicans will fight for millionaires and billionaires to get a tax cut yet will not fight for the working class for better pay or working conditions.
Why are you bringing politics into this subject.
@@LonnieBrewer-dd4wiIsn't he a senator?
@@Fresno2550 He is, and he shouldn't be interfering with this strike.
The nurses should of agreed to the contract lucky thier being offered more then a livable wage n dont have to work a second job just to make ends living in hawaii n giving them a 3 day work week, n get more time spending with thier significant other and kids if they got
Hey Senator Fevella , have you ever participate in a strike ? Your talk is cheap !! In the competitive world , this is legal lockout.
Especially in construction ,, so many trades have their strikes too
I'm starting to hate the guy now, he sticks his nose in places where he should be minding his own business. He's just trying to look good.
No it's not..
Nurses association overplayed their hand, now are begging people to pay attention to them. STOP COVERING THIS STORY.
The story needs to be covered to show that the unions tactics of striking should not be allowed. If it is not about money, why not bargain with that off the table.
If the work load is too great lay them off and hire lots of low level nurses.
@@kawikadee9670what do you mean low level? You can’t hire a CNA or LPN to do a RN’s job.
@@1Justingaddi No you keep some rn's but hire more lpn's so that the rn's do less. I'm sure the rn's are doing more than they need to and it's tasks that an lpn could be doing.
Fevella, I would stay out of this be smart before people turn against you.
I agree with you on this one..
New contract:
1. You get to keep your high pay and good schedule
2. You get to keep your job after you abandoned your patients and post
3. One more acting out and you will be let go.
Wrong..
@@LonnieBrewer-dd4wi No? Then good bye!
Sounds fair.
@@kawikadee9670 It won't solve the problem. The hospital made some bad decisions.
Member of the GOP backing a union...what's this world coming to?!
Last chance to sign the contract tomorrow. Take it or leave it. Don't play the hospital. It's not easy to find temporary nurses. The COO is a hero to rescue patients.
lol hero? Hospital administrators are not your friend. They are the ones wringing the dollars out of you before you get to leave the hospital.
When you apply for a job, you don't set the wage. Unions are robbers. In this case they held patients hostage.@@supreme5998
If you are pregnant you should be at home.
Who cares let them find a new job
I have never ever heard of a Republican siding with Unions. I guess Ewa Beach really found out the kind of person they voted for.
Is this a compliment or a put down?
I think he's a democrat.
@@Insomniac-c7eCould go both ways.
He is not siding with the nurses, he is siding with the Union. BTW, they have only been out for a couple of days. So what has changed that the nurse patient ration is now dangerous, or is this just another union BS tactic?
That's da kine gov of Hawaii we have ,you guys voted for him !!!!!!
Keeping out of the strike is the smartest thing green did.
Senator talking pigeon
Nothing New!!!
@@Fresno2550 I don’t agree with his politics but what does that have to do with Campbell????
He is a pigeon. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well he's from Ewa side.
@@kawikadee9670 Meaning???
Brah the nurses should go back to their 120k jobs and stop whining
State losing out on all the tax dollars from nurses being out of work. Meditate an agreement, get everybody to work without raising the prices to patient, then see if you can walk on water. Lol. Miracles can happen.
Wonder what would happen if the politicians was union and if they went on strike and let them feel the bite and some of us not even in the union and we have to bite it everyday just to survive and work with the wage you get now if your company gives you a raise just enjoy it be happy
(GIVE ME MY MONEYYYY) LOL
CHEERING🎉😂
BY THE HOUSE A ROUND IM BROKE ALREADY
Ah they have lawyers
Kurt great job! they need more support. That is the WORST form of extortion . But Hawaii has the WORST incompetent Labor Relations head who would not see the extortion . ALL Labor MUST STAND and Support the NURSES!
Its NOT extortion. They were given a contract to sign and they refused. The hospital DOES NOT NEED TO COWER to their demands. If they dont like, they can go work somewhere else. They do not NEED to work there
@@null1808 Guess you would'nt know the difference! hospital demand they take the proposal as is!
@@natelum-ss6lk No, its not the same. The hospital and the nurses association have been going back and forth for over a year. The hospital even amended their best and final offer, twice. The nurses said no and wanted more. This deal currently on the table would make the nurses the highest paid in the state, making 133k- 166k working on three days a week, if a nurse wanted to make double that, they could easily work another two days a week to 5 days a week and crack over 200k. At some point the hospital says I cant do anymore. There is no blood left to squeeze, so they decided to say if you dont like the deal, GO WORK SOMEWHERE ELSE. this is not extortion, this is just a nurses getting GREEDY and expecting people like you who clearly dont understand to fall in line and cry with them.
Isn't a walk out a form of extortion?
@@null1808 The nurses are saying it's about the lack of staffing not the pay. But probably at their rate of pay the hospital cannot afford to have more nurses. Something has to be sacrificed. They have to choose between higher pay or more staffing, they cannot have both.
Hmmmmm sen fevella. I'm happy you're stepping up to the plate....visible to constituents! Yesss
It's called showing face and acting.
