The LAPD has arrested 25 people for failing to disperse after an unlawful assembly was declared at a Labor Day march and demonstration by health care workers in Los Feliz.
Health care workers marched and rallied in Los Feliz in conjunction with Labor Day to draw attention to what organizers say are long patient wait times, missed diagnosis, neglect and chronic understaffing in patient care.
"Thank you to the brave to the @SEIU--UHW workers who are putting their bodies on the line in the call to overcome greed and improve healthcare for millions of Californians," the union posted on social media, accompanied by photos of members sitting in the street. "We believe this is because talented people recognize the value of our current wage and benefit offerings and want to work at Kaiser Permanente," the statement said."About 96% of candidates for coalition-represented positions accept our employment offers significantly above the industry average."
Approximately 5,000-6,000 people, including Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, were expected for"the largest West Coast Labor Day solidarity parade," Barragan said. In his Labor Day proclamation, President Joe Biden wrote,"I have often said that the middle class built this country and that unions built the middle class. On Labor Day, we honor that essential truth and the dedication and dignity of American workers, who power our nation's prosperity.
