What's at stake in the race for Governor?
The UNAP has endorsed Charlie Fogarty for Governor of RI. Here's why:
- Fogarty has publicly supported legislation to end mandatory overtime.
- Fogarty has led the fight for frequent inspection of health care facilities.
- Fogarty has been a leader on long-term care issues.
- Fogarty led the way to establish hospital reporting of patient outcomes and other quality measures.
- Fogarty created the Nurse Reward Tuition Program.
- Fogarty has worked closely with UNAP members and
leaders for many years on important health care issues.
- Don Carcieri took away health insurance from children, proposed massive cuts for people with developmental disabilities, supported tax breaks for the very wealthy, and has never supported mandatory overtime legislation.
It's time to elect a Governor who cares as much as we do!
