California Nurses Association says no to Arnold

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Incensed by the governor's comments about kicking nurse's butts, his vetoing a lifting bill to protect nurses from back injuries, and his proposed initiatives in the special election on November 6, California nurses are fighting back.
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed a lifting bill that would have protected nurses from back injuries. Then, he tried to reduce the nurse-to-patient ratio nurses say is critical to patient care. Now, the governor has initiatives in the upcoming election that the CNA says would prevent nurses from having a say in healthcare policy. "Basically, he wants to shut our mouths," said Helen Lee, a CNA representative.
