The Trump administration is rapidly making sweeping changes that affect nurses and our patients in and out of the hospital. See our list of resources regarding these changes here.
National Nurses United is fighting against the unjust firings of members of the federal workforce, including VA workers who are essential in the provision of high-quality therapeutic care to veterans.
The Trump Administration has changed the rules, no longer designating hospitals, as well as schools and churches, as "sensitive areas," free from immigration enforcement. Nurses make a vow to care for all people, and we know hospitals should remain places of healing, where all people can receive care, without fear. We want to ensure nurses and patients you know your rights.
Millions of our patients who rely upon Medicaid for their health and other care — the low-income, pregnant patients, seniors in nursing homes, the disabled, and children — are in major jeopardy. The current administration is attacking Medicaid, aiming to slash $880 billion from Medicaid to fund continued tax cuts for billionaires and corporations.
President Donald Trump and his administration have advanced several executive orders in an unprecedented effort to federally institute the criminalization of gender-affirming health care for some transgender patients, a policy long pursued at state and local levels across the country.
