Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest employees have 'overwhelmingly' voted to approve a three-year agreement to raise wages by 15% over three years, according to union representatives this week.

On Wednesday, SEIU-United Healthcare Workers West announced the agreement that raises wages by 15% over a three-year period, increases the minimum wage at clinics to $23 per hour and improves benefits and working conditions. SEIU-UHW officials said Planned Parenthood workers"have faced an overwhelming surge in patients from other states seeking reproductive care in post-Roe America," referring to the June 2022 U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning a nearly 50-year ruling that legalized abortion.
"We didn't end up working at Planned Parenthood by accident," Gomez added."We believe in the mission, and we care deeply about ensuring patients have access to healthcare and safe abortion care. But we are tired and burnt out.
