Today at 12PM Pacific Time, SEIU Local 721 offices throughout Southern California will observe a one-minute moment of silence in honor of all the brothers and sisters we lost. We ask SEIU members and sister locals across the nation to join us in a moment of silence, remembering and honoring our union brothers and sisters.
Our unity and participation is the foundation for a strong contract. The actions you took over the past months like Purpling Up and participating in unity breaks made the difference!
We will continue to fight – at our worksites and at the table – for real investment to restore and strengthen County services. United, we will continue to champion fair wages and workplace safety for all County members.
On Monday November 28th, our bargaining team continued to deliver our comprehensive proposals designed to relieve the burden of healthcare premium increases and ensure the vital services our members provide are valued.
We need a logo and slogan that perfectly portrays the awesome partnership we’ve built together. We are taking submissions for logo and slogan ideas, then we’ll post the best ones for a vote from all our members so it will truly be OUR logo and slogan!
SEIU Local 721 County of Ventura members sent a message to the Board of Supervisors, in person: “Give us thanks for a job well done!”
Hundreds of Los Angeles-area health care workers, nurses, advocates, patients, and seniors were joined Tuesday by Senate President pro Tempore Kevin de León and Senate Health Committee Chairman Ed Hernandez to launch a massive effort to protect Californians’ access to affordable health care. Their action came as the Trump Administration and Republican-led Congress are launching an all-out assault on health security for millions of Americans, with plans to gut the Medicare guarantee for seniors and decimate the Affordable Care Act and Medi-Cal. Health advocates promised to fight attacks on health care that that would force millions of Californians back into the ranks of the uninsured.
When it comes to protecting vital public services, our County of Ventura members are ready to do Whatever It Takes! Members across the county have come together to lift their collective voice, demanding that the county invest in our community!
In 2017, a President and Congress will be sworn in who oppose federal funding for the healthcare services that employ our Sisters and Brothers, and that our families and communities rely on. They’re proposing cuts that will hurt all of us.
Join us in a rally to protect healthcare!

The Fight Is Just Beginning
The election on November 8th should have been a triumph for working people and our country. Instead it was a tragedy.
