Twin Cities Nurses Reach a Deal, Duluth Nurses Still Set to Strike

TWIN CITIES, MINNESOTA, JUL 3 – The agreement ends a potential strike for 12,000 nurses at nine Twin Cities hospitals with a 10% wage increase over three years, while Duluth nurses may still strike.

  • On Thursday morning, the Minnesota Nurses Association and Twin Cities hospitals reached a tentative agreement, avoiding a strike for about 12,000 nurses while Duluth nurses still plan to strike next Tuesday.
  • After nearly four months of bargaining, staffing priorities and looming federal Medicaid cuts drove the Minnesota Nurses Association's negotiations with hospitals.
  • The contract includes 3%, 4%, and 3% wage increases over three years, totaling a 10% raise, along with tools to improve workplace safety and break law compliance.
  • While approximately 12,000 Metro nurses avoid a strike, over 2,000 Duluth nurses are set to strike Tuesday with providers joining July 10.
  • Following the tentative agreement, the Minnesota Nurses Association's members will vote on ratification, while the union expands statewide efforts to improve hospital safety.
