Sen. Bernie Sanders responded to criticism of his decision to hold a field hearing in New Brunswick, New Jersey, on Friday examining nursing staff shortages in the context of a high-profile nursing strike in the state by raising the possibility of pursuing federal-level nursing staff mandatory minimums for hospitals.
Two weeks into the strike, Sanders sent a letter to hospital system administrators accusing them of not negotiating in good faith to address alleged"unfair labor practices." The chairman also hosted a livestream event with the striking nurses through his campaign website in September. Nurses and support staff in healthcare institutions across the United States have called for action on understaffing that they say is creating dangerous conditions for patients, and healthcare workers, including physicians, have reported increased rates of burnout since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, with many going into early retirement.
“It's unconscionable that the Senior Senator from Vermont overtly inserts himself into labor negotiations between a hospital in New Jersey and our nurses—and his public statements today illustrate that true intent," RWJ spokeswoman Wendy Gottsegen said in a press statement ahead of the hearing.
