 April 16, 2014 | SOLIDARITY | Healthcare workers of 1199-SEIU United Workers East struck the Johns Hopkins Hospital for threes days last week. With over 2,000 workers in the unit, the picket line in front of the hospital’s main entrance had from 700 to 1,200 picketers during the day shift picket duty. The strike was the result of intransigence on the hospital’s part when they failed to present a counter offer to the union’s last proposal, the objective of which was to get the low-paid workers above the federal poverty level.
