SEIU-UHW Submits Ballot Signatures for 90% Patient Care Spending Mandate — CMA Opposes as 'Dangerous'
SEIU-UHW submitted ballot signatures for two California initiatives: one capping executive pay at healthcare companies and another requiring community health clinics to spend 90% of revenue on patient care. CMA calls the clinic measure 'dangerous' and has formed the 'Protect Patients' opposition coalition.
The June 25 signature verification deadline is approaching. If qualified, FQHCs would face mandatory spending floors that could restrict reserves, capital investment, and administrative capacity during the H.R.
