The president of a California union representing health care workers said members will picket outside Vice President Joe Biden's upcoming fundraiser in Los Angeles set to be held at the home of a director of the Kaiser Foundation.
HuffPost reported Tuesday that the National Union of Healthcare Workers (NUHW), an Oakland-based union representing more than 3,000 Kaiser Permanente employees in the state, will hold an informal picket outside Biden's Wednesday event.
The union has battled Kaiser for years over staffing levels in California clinics, according to HuffPost, and is reportedly pressuring Biden's campaign to side with union workers over his donors. The former vice president defended unions in recent days after criticism from President Trump over several unions' endorsement of Biden's campaign.
“He should take our side in this dispute,” union president Sal Rosselli told HuffPost. “I think he should walk. He should cancel it.”

We’ll see if Biden takes the suggestion of the union president, forgoes the dirty cash, and stands with workers.
“He should take our side in this dispute,” union president Sal Rosselli told HuffPost. “I think he should walk. He should cancel it.”
Which side are you on? Tonight may tell us a lot.
