SEIU121RN is a fierce LABOR UNION representing over 9,000 RNs and Healthcare Professionals.

We are Nurses and other Licensed Healthcare Professionals throughout Southern California. We use our collective voice and united strength to advocate—through legislation, contract negotiations, patient advocacy and community partnerships—for levels, adequate equipment and resources, workplace violence protections and other critical issues affecting patient and Nurse safety.

There are a lot of candidates vying for your vote in this election.

A lot of them are not on the side of working people.

The candidates in this election guide have been interviewed and vetted by our Union's COPE Committee who ensure that these candidates will fight for working people and their interests, including fighting against deep cuts to healthcare, which endangers good jobs and cruelly strips millions of the most vulnerable Americans of their health insurance.

Make a plan to vote either by mail or at your local vote center.

You can find your polling place here: sos.ca.gov/elections/polling-place

The last day to register to vote is October 19.

You can register to vote at registertovote.ca.gov.

Working people across the country are facing multiple crises, from greedy billionaires and corporations driving down wages and benefits, to the federal government taking away healthcare for millions of workers, to continuing fear and repression by ICE and CBP against working people.
The stakes are high, but SEIU 121RN members are facing these crises head-on.
This week, union officers and new activists attended the “2026 Dream, Demand, Disrupt: Taking Back What’s Ours” conference in Phoenix to learn how to better organize fellow members to resist fascism and oligarchy.

Everyday, during every shift, NICU Nurses selflessly put their heart and souls into caring for the most fragile and precious of patients. During Neonatal Nurses Week, we want to celebrate the hundreds of NICU Nurses who are proud members of our union, and NICU Nurses everywhere.

“It’s really fulfilling when you see babies that come in so sick, and leave our care in the NICU fully healthy in the arms of their parents,” says Maria Elena Diaz, an RN in the NICU at Garfield Medical Center.

Right now, Garfield Nurses are at the bargaining table, fighting for the safe staffing they require to give the compassionate care their patients deserve.

When Union Nurses speak out, it can save patients’ lives.

Los Robles Regional Medical Center used contaminated surgical instruments on patients in three procedures, failed to sanitize surgical equipment, and failed to report an adverse event, according to a shocking story in the Ventura County Star.

It all started with our members sounding the alarm.

“In a 54-page report completed in May, California Department of Public Health investigators cited three surgeries at the hospital in which contaminated equipment was used,” writes reporter Tom Kisken.

State investigators launched a complaint validation survey of the hospital, which substantiated seven of 11 complaints.
“Management at the hospital was aware of the danger to patients and failed to take sufficient action to rectify it,” said Rosanna Mendez, SEIU 121RN’s executive director.
