3,000 workers at Alameda Health System Bargain for 14 Months, Strike for 5 Days, and Finally WIN a Tentative Agreement for a Four-Year Contract with a New CEO, New Trustees, and Many New Members
"The power we have is the power to stick together to fight for common goals."
An “…incredibly momentous settlement within truly unexpected conditions,” is how Alameda Health System (AHS) Chapter President John Pearson described the tentative agreement reached between SEIU 1021 members and AHS management last week. John, an Emergency Room nurse at Oakland’s Highland Hospital, summed up the long, hard contract campaign by saying, “We can win when we make a plan together and when we struggle together.”
CCA members, students, and workers take to the streets to save another Bay Area higher-ed art institution from collapse at the hands of big banks.
On Sunday, March 21, SEIU 1021 members from the staff and adjunct unions at CCA joined forces with CCA students supporters from the local art community to adorn the street steps away from the front door of First Republic Bank in SF with a dazzling yet poignant mural.
The street mural action is the latest step in an ongoing fight between CCA union members, the CCA administration, and the Board of Trustees over a string of reckless decisions that have burdened the institution with massive amounts of debt which is impacting students and workers alike.

“We must work together to tackle anti-Asian racism in our communities and our workplaces,” says Yeon Park, SEIU 1021 VP of the East Bay
