The Health Care Battle has Begun..........
We have SEIU/1199 and the GNYHA Staffing Up For Battle and the first state wide ads are being run The First Salvo (Updated) SEIU/1199 and the Greater New York Hospital Association have started running a statewide campaign in an effort to win public support for their opposition to Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s proposed Medicaid cuts.
The push includes two 30-second TV spots (the other one appears after the jump) and a mailer. and The Greater New York Hospital Association and SEIU/1199 are done playing nice and are poised to unleash a TV campaign against Spitzer’s Medicaid cuts (similar to the tact they successfully employed against former Gov. George Pataki).
GNYHA and the healthcare workers union are also writing to state legislators, asking for them to pledge to fight Spitzer’s cuts.........they will soon discover Spitzer is no Pataki....Eliot will not be rolling over and playing dead for anyone........thank you Liz Benjamin for above updates.......andy
