🎉 There’s power in a union…and San Bernardino home care workers just proved it! Their new IHSS contract delivers real wins, including a path to $21 an hour and increased funding for job training and safety equipment. That's what happens when caregivers organize and flex their union power.

We organized, mobilized and voted!

And we are not done yet - On November 7, caregivers showed up again.

Across California, SEIU 2015 members joined labor and community partners to celebrate the power of working people and to make it clear that the work does not stop on Election Day.
Our members spent this election season knocking on doors, making calls and talking to their neighbors about what care means for their families and communities.

Now, we will raise our collective voices around the issues that matter to hold our elected officials accountable: protecting Medi-Cal and IHSS, investing in caregivers, supporting immigrant families and strengthening the services working people depend on.

We made our voices heard at the ballot box and we are staying organized for the Future of Care our communities deserve. Too much is at stake for the survival of our country!

💜 Care was on the ballot and our voices were heard!

Congratulations to SEIU 2015-endorsed Xavier Becerra, the next Governor of California! And to our victorious care candidates in the U.S. House: Dr. Richard Pan in CA-6 and Randy Villegas in CA-22!

Our union of more than 500,000 long-term care workers backed candidates who share our commitment to protecting care workers, seniors, and people with disabilities.

Now, we look forward to seeing that commitment reflected in the decisions that matter most: protecting care, strengthening services, and investing in the people who make care possible.

The election may be over, but our work for a stronger Future of Care continues. ✊💜

Caregivers do essential work for our families and communities. So why are so many struggling to make ends meet? Kings County home care provider and SEIU 2015 member Julio Godinez knows firsthand what it’s like to dedicate yourself to caring for others while struggling to get by. He’s sharing his story and fighting alongside fellow IHSS workers for the wages and respect they deserve. Caring for others shouldn’t mean struggling to care for yourself.
