2024 Nurses United is a slate of registered nurses running for elected office in Teamsters Local 2024. We are committed to transparent, accountable leadership and strong, consistent representation for nurses across every campus.
Our mission is to keep members informed, strengthen participation, uphold our contract, and ensure every nurse has a meaningful voice in the future of our union.
