NUHW Kaiser mental healthcare workers went on strike during 2022 MLK day because of the refusal of Kaiser to make the day a holiday which had been promised by management and against systemic racism in staffing and care. The strike comes after the defeat of the IUOE Local 39 whose strike was defeated by Kaiser management.

They marched from the Kaiser hospital in Oakland to a rally at the Kaiser corporate headquarters and spoke out about the lack of Black and Brown clinicians for these communities and the stalling of Kaiser management on negotiations for a new contract.
