Alliance Tele-Town Hall
2021-02-25 09:00 - 11:00
This past year health care workers have faced unprecedented challenges. The pandemic has been isolating, even within our workplaces. But we are not alone. Union members have a long history of meeting difficult moments by leaning on our greatest strength: each other. And building collective strength will be needed for us to achieve a strong union contract.

This month, the Alliance of Health Care Unions is coming together to build our unity and our power by sharing our stories. Our voices and our stories are powerful.

Join the us to hear the experiences of Alliance members from across Kaiser Permanente at our first national Tele-Town Hall on Thursday, February 25, 2021. The Alliance will share ways we can help each other get through this moment stronger and more unified than ever in preparation for National Bargaining.

The Tele-Town Hall is being presented at three different times on Feb 25. You have the option to join the call at the time that is most convenient for you.

Session 1: 9 AM (PST)
Session 2: 12 PM (PST)
Session 3: 7 PM (PST)

Stop The Home Depot at SD Planning Commission!
2021-02-25 09:00 - 11:00
WRONG SIZE! WRONG LOCATION!
STOP THE HOME DEPOT!
THE HOME DEPOT wants to construct a 275,000 sq/ft building, garden center and tri level parking structure next door to UFCW Local 135 on Camino Del Rio South.
The resulting massive increase in traffic, including semi-trucks and heavy vehicles servicing THE HOME DEPOT, on this narrow two-lane road is detrimental to all who work, worship, and conduct business on Camino Del Rio South from Texas Street to Mission Center Road. With no room to widen the roadway or plans to mitigate the increased influx of vehicles, the results will be a dangerous traffic nightmare.
Thousands of union members and retirees, churchgoers and school children, and employees and visitors that work and patronize the businesses and organizations that utilize Camino Del Rio South will be adversely impacted by the construction, and especially, the daily operation of THE HOME DEPOT.
We call on the SD Planning Commissioners, Mission Valley stakeholders, our union members and retirees, our labor siblings at other San Diego unions, and our community allies to join us in helping stop this enormous project!
It’s the wrong size, in the wrong location!
Please join us and help stop THE HOME DEPOT!
