SEIU officials beg NLRB to stop Kaiser elections
Filing asks federal government to reconsider decision to hold elections for nearly 2,000 more Northern California Kaiser employees to join NUHW

But the incumbent union SEIU today made a last-ditch effort to stop those three elections and deny nearly 2,000 union members the right to vote.
In a filing with the National Labor Relations Board, SEIU officials begged the federal government to ignore petitions from hundreds of workers and reconsider the decision by the NLRB’s Regional Director to move forward with the elections.
