“Unions are what keep the Bronx strong, and I am thrilled to welcome the more than 1,200 Montefiore residents and fellows as the newest group of unionized workers in our borough. These physicians are deeply committed to providing the best care possible for their patients, and are now organizing for the working conditions they need to improve healthcare in the Bronx. As the doctors who care for our community 365 days a year, they deserve to have a say in decisions that impact their working conditions and patient care. CIR/SEIU is an important leader in the fight for health justice in New York and across the nation, and I look forward to working with the Montefiore resident physicians on improving healthcare equity and access in the Bronx. I call on Montefiore to respect the will of a supermajority of their resident physicians and recognize their union without delay.”
