On December 10 and 11 of 2025, in an election held by the National Labor Relations Board, LIJ registered nurses (RNs) voted 791 to 589 against unionization at the hospital. We want to thank every RN who participated in this election for exercising their right to vote, and especially those who voted to maintain our current relationship. For those who voted in favor of unionization, we're listening, and we look forward to productive conversations about how we can continue making LIJ a great place to work for you and your colleagues.
