Important Aspirus SLH Negotiations Update
October 30, 2026

Dear Sister, Brothers and Siblings,
Yesterday we had another difficult session of bargaining with Aspirus . Aspirus is continuing to push for major concessions, with minimum positive movement for our members. The union, on the other hand, has made significant reasonable movement towards a fair contract for everyone. We continue to fight for a contract that reflects the vital work all of us perform, while at the same time recognizes the continued economic challenges facing the healthcare sector.
We need to hear from you about what issues are most important to you. And we would also like to update you on what Aspirus is looking to take away from us.
We will have an open Q & A on November 4 from 4 to 8:30pm, with a presentation at 6pm. We need you there! We’ll be meeting in Hall B in the basement of the Duluth Labor Temple. There will also be a zoom option for folks who need to attend remotely. To get the zoom link email usw9460@gmail.com
In solidarity!
Your union bargaining committee
