Congressional Progressive Caucus Slams CMS Rule Limiting Labor Rights of Home Health Workers
May 7, 2019
We strongly oppose the new rule from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services that singles out home health workers to deny them their fundamental right to support their union and collectively bargain for retirement and health care benefits. Make no mistake: this is a direct attack on home health workers – disproportionately low-income and minority women – who do the heroic work of caring for seniors and people with disabilities in their own homes.
