Save Our State Hospitals
DHHR Cabinet Secretary Bill Crouch is attempting to dismantle all state health facilities. (BHHF) The liquidation of state hospitals will be the state’s first approach at privatizing public sector workers and privatizing state mental health services.
Why is this important?
Hundreds of public sector jobs will be lost along with essential services to additional thousands of vulnerable mentally ill and elderly citizens. Privatization is nothing more than profiteering. Please join UE Local 170, West Virginia Public Workers Union’s counter-attack. Furthermore, call your Delegate (s) or Senators (s) and tell them you strongly oppose the privatization of all state hospitals. Demand Cabinet Secretary Bill Crouch’s resignation. Demand that DHHR stop spending $ 18 Million dollars a year on out of state contract employees and expedite the hiring process for full-time state employees.
