NYC Nurses’ Strike Nears End After Tentative Deal at Two Hospital Systems
• Nurses at two of New York City’s three major hospital systems reached tentative agreements, setting the stage for the strike to end after several weeks.
• The strike was driven by disputes over staffing levels, pay, working conditions, and patient safety, with nurses saying chronic understaffing was harming care.
• The agreements will now be put to a membership vote, and nurses at the two systems are expected to return to work if the deals are ratified.
