Art Hounds: Rural Minnesota
Good morning,
Some 15,000 nurses with the Minnesota Nurses Association have authorized a strike, the union announced late Wednesday.
The strike authorization vote required two-thirds of voting members to pass; in a press release, the union said it passed “overwhelmingly.” It gives nurses at the negotiating table the ability to call a strike with 10 days’ notice.
🎧 On Minnesota Now, host Cathy Wurzer checks in with MPR News health reporter Michelle Wiley about the strike authorization. Here's what else we have planned today.
🌬️ Winds will become southeasterly and gusty as Thursday progresses. Afternoon highs will be in the 20s across northern Minnesota and 30s in the south. The Twin Cities should have a near-normal high around 33. Get the latest on Updraft. | |
