Central Seattle Workplace Organizing Collective / El Grupo para Organizar su Lugar de Trabajo: Seattle Central logo featuring fist raising a hammer.

8,000 courageous healthcare workers are going on strike at Swedish this week to demand safe staffing levels for patients and reasonable wage increases.

When: Wednesday, January 29 6:30pm-8:30pm
Where: Meet at the Starbucks to east of Seattle University (800 12th Ave, Seattle, WA 98122) Come directly to Swedish First Hill after 6:45pm. Text Alex at 360.209.4527 if you can’t find us or have questions!
How: Jump in and grab a picket sign provided by the union. Join chants and talk with workers. Ask about why they’re on strike and learn how they got organized to take this huge action!
