Kaiser Permanente and Target Stores have reached an agreement to open medical care clinics in Target Stores to provide convenient care for minor medical issues. This new approach to reaching out to the community is still a pilot and can only be found in certain stores in Southern California, two of which are in San Diego County, one in Vista and the other in Mission Valley San Diego. The clinics are staffed by members of the unions at KP and in San Diego by Local 30 and UNAC members.

In yet another showing of Local 30 activism our Generation Next young leaders council together with our Local 30 Nurse’s Council joined in on a beach cleanup at Tourmaline Beach. The event sponsored by the San Diego Surf Riders Association drew more than 100 civic minded individuals including Local 30 members in this community event.

“We simply wanted to help in our community and show others that our union is more than just our representative where we work,” said Carolina Aceves, Victoria D’Albero & Margie Fernandez from Gen Next. “We wore our Local 30 shirts for all to see, had a great time, and made a difference. It feels really good!”

Don’t Sign It! Fair Pay For Hard Work!

Today, the San Diego City Council overrode Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s veto and OFFICIALLY PASSED THE EARNED SICK DAYS AND MINIMUM WAGE ORDINANCE! Their override means that the Earned Sick Leave-Minimum Wage is once again in place to help hardworking San Diegans who struggle to pay the rent and buy groceries.

However, our fight continues, opponents representing a small handful of special interests have announced that they are prepared to spend what it takes to repeal the law. They will be in front of grocery stores and other areas in the city attempting to collect 34,000 signatures to repeal the law.

To push back against this brazen attack against hard working San Diegans we need your help! Council President Todd Gloria, Irwin Jacobs, Mel Katz, Bill Walton and Barbara Bry kicked off the citywide campaign, simply called “Don’t Sign It,” to defeat the referendum against the ordinance.

Today, City Council stood up for 280,000 San Diegans who lack sick leave and nearly 200,000 low-wage workers who work hard every day and can’t afford rent and groceries, now its time to do our part.

Here's what you can do:

Take the pledge not to sign the anti-sick days anti-minimum wage petitions.
Inform as many people as possible that the earned sick days and minimum wage policy HAS PASSED, and that any signature gathering effort is an attempt to TAKE IT AWAY!! Tell your friends: DON’T SIGN IT!
If you see a signature gatherer, call or text the following hotline: (619) 930 – 3300.
Volunteer.

Click here to take the pledge to protect the Earned Sick Leave-Minimum Wage Ordinance.
