    GRAND BLANC, Mich.—Nurses at Henry Ford Health in Michigan—one of the state’s largest health care systems—have been on strike for over a year, but their spirit remains solid both on the picket line and at the bargaining table. Represented by Teamsters Local 332, they met with management for a negotiation session on Sept. 11, 2026, as their unfair labor practice strike passed its first anniversary. They also returned to the picket line last week after the Labor Day holiday, with the union blaming

    STURGIS, Mich.—For 101 years, Sturgis Hospital stood as a cornerstone of healthcare in southwest Michigan. But on June 19, the doors closed for good. It is but the latest casualty in a decades-long assault on public health infrastructure and an economic system that prioritizes profits over people. The closure came with staff being given a mere 72 hours’ notice before entirely ceasing operations.

    LANSING—Michigan’s unions spent 18 months fighting Republican obstruction to get nine pro-worker bills to the governor’s desk, only to have Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer veto every single one of them.
