Michigan Home Care Workers United

Meet the Michigan lawmakers who voted to gut healthcare and slash food assistance for hundreds of thousands of Michiganders.

We joined our @SEIULocal1 family in downtown Detroit today for a prayer vigil and march as janitorial workers continue to fight for a strong new contract. They’re ready to win the fair wages and respect they deserve!

Michigan home care workers stood in #solidarity with our @SEIULocal1 union siblings yesterday in downtown Detroit. Janitorial workers held a prayer vigil and march as they continue their fight for a strong contract. #UnionsForAll

Across the country, nearly 800,000 home care workers have come together in @SEIU to form strong unions — and it’s working. They’ve won higher wages, affordable healthcare, paid time off, training and the respect every caregiver deserves. We're ready to do the same in Michigan!

"If we don’t have #Medicaid to help cover the cost, we can’t pay for it. [My mom] will die. Just because we’re not upper-class does not mean that we do not deserve to live, and to live humanely.” — Nadia Chisnell, home care worker msmagazine.com/2025/06/30/mom…

When you’re a member of Congress, your vote impacts the entire country, no matter which state you represent… We caught up with fellow midwesterner @senronjohnson to see if he had anything to say about the lives he’s putting at risk by supporting #medicaid cuts 🧐 (he did not).

#CareIsEssential and we should be fixing our broken healthcare system — not cutting billions from it and raising costs for families. #CareNotCuts

When you're a member of Congress, your vote impacts the entire country no matter which state you represent. We caught up with fellow midwesterner @SenRonJohnson to see if he had anything to say about all the lives he's putting at risk by supporting cuts to #Medicaid (he did not)

Senators are preparing to vote on the largest government cut to healthcare in history... $1,000,000,000,000 gone. 💸 16,000,000 lives on the line. 🪦 This is death by a trillion cuts. Cut the lies, not our lifeline. #ThisBillKills #HandsOffMedicaid

These headstones aren’t props — they’re warnings. Medicaid saves lives. Cutting it will cost lives. #MedicaidSavesLives #ThisBillKills

This isn’t just about a budget—it’s a full-blown attack on working people. We see it. We’re not having it. Call Congress now and demand a ‘NO’ vote on this big, ugly bill: 866-426-2631 #ThisBillKills

Ravina knows just how demanding being a home care worker is — that’s why she’s ready to form a union. With a union, we have a seat at the table to bargain for the wages, protections and benefits we need to care for ourselves and our loved ones.

Right now, politicians are moving to gut our healthcare. If they succeed, the damage will be massive, immediate and deadly for millions of people. Send a message to Congress to share what Medicaid cuts will mean for your family: act.seiu.org/a/medicaid-dea…

So many home care workers and the people we care for rely on Medicaid. Gutting it to fund tax cuts for billionaires is just cruel. #HandsOffMedicaid

Senator Alex Padilla had every right to speak up for his constituents. This is authoritarianism. Plain and simple. And this is how Democracy dies.

I’m so proud of how the labor movement came together to stand with our union brother @SEIUCalifornia President David Huerta. This is what unions do. We stand together in solidarity. And if you come for one of us, you come for all of us. washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/06…
